To create authentic Mexican music for the film, Zimmer recruited musicians and bands from that country. David Hidalgo, the principal band member of Los Lobos felt that "They could do it on their own, but it sounded funny. It didn’t sound authentic. So they needed some Mexicans in there. That doesn’t sound kosher and it doesn’t sound right to say it that way, but in a way it is. You need someone who knows this music, someone to play it properly and get the real effect. That’s why they called us in. The band performed the title theme that was released as a single on February 7, 2011, that served as an anchor to the soundtrack. The theme had references to Ennio Morricone's western themes and Ned Washington and Dimitri Tiomkin's 1958 single "Rawhide".
