Hyphy Music Inc. presents its second concert in conjunction with the Fresno Convention Center.

And it’s going to be legendary.

The local production company, which hosted the Mariachi Festival in August, brings in six 1980s-’90s Latin acts for Leyendes del Pueblo 2015.

The lineup includes Cumbia saxophonist Fito Olivares, who had a series of Top 40 hits on Billboard’s Latin chart in the mid-1990s, among them “El Colesterol.” Olivares performed at last year’s two-day Fiestas Patrias Mexican Independence Day celebration on the Fulton Mall.

This year, he will be joined by Los Potros, Mi Banda el Mexicano de Casimiro, Tiranos del Norte, Los Gamma de Mexico and Los Sepultureros.
