Cardenas’ band announced his passing in a heartfelt post on Facebook, writing, “With heavy hearts, the Cardenas Family shares the passing of our beloved Omar — a father, grandfather, brother, son and lifelong musician whose love for music and family touched everyone around him. His rhythm will forever live on in our hearts.”
According to a GoFundMe created by his family, Cardenas spent decades doing what he loved most — playing bass alongside his brothers in Tejano bands across the Midwest and Texas, including the chart-topping and Grammy-nominated La Diferenzia. Their 1994 self-titled debut album earned a Grammy nomination for Best Mexican-American Performance, cementing the group’s place in Tejano music history.
“His music connected people, filled dance floors, and became part of countless memories for those lucky enough to hear him play,” the fundraiser reads. “Omar’s journey wasn’t always easy, but it was real. He lived life with intensity — full of stories, laughter, and moments that left an impression on everyone who crossed his path.”
