After a successful European Tour and the release of a new single, Hector Guerra will be headlining this Friday night at 333 Live along with Cinco Santos, an international combo of musician based in Los Angeles and Andres Garcia, the new voice of Spanish pop.

Hector Guerra, the Spanish Bolivian MC now living in Mexico has been touring all over the world in support of his first album, Amor and recently completed a tour of France where he played in Paris and Toulouse and upon his return, he released his newest single, “Fantazy”.

“Fantazy” includes elements of Cumbia, Banda Sinaloense, Dancehall, Trap, House, Reggae, and Hip Hop. “Fantazy” was produced at Artco Studios in Mexico City by Marco Moreno who has worked with such music luminaries as The Who, Wyclef Jean, London Symphony Orchestra, Moderatto and Natalia Lafourcade.

With every tour, Hector’s music continues to evolve on stage. The first time he toured the U.S. he had a DJ and some percussion instruments, the next time, he added more live instruments like a drummer, a base player and even a tuba and it seems that the more time he spends in Latin America, the more he emerges himself in the Latin American culture and keeps adding different elements to his music as is the case on the new single.

Although based in Los Angeles, Cinco Santos is made up of members from diverse musical backgrounds and different countries such as Colombia, Spain, Argentina, Mexico, Canada and the U.S. which accounts for the eclectic sounds found in their first album, Duplicidad in which one can hear elements of Latin pop, jazz, flamenco, and rock.

From Colombia, a young new pop music promise, Andres Garcia, will make his international debut in support of his single “Una Oportunidad”. Andres is preparing to release his first full length album which was recorded in Los Angeles at Capitol Records and produced by Pablo Aguirre who has worked with such pop icons as Luis Miguel, Armando Manzanero, Ricky Martin, Alejandra Guzmán, Ricardo Arjona, Miguel Bosé and Ricardo Montaner among others.

This Friday night, 333 Live, which is located at 333 S Boylston St, Los Angeles, will open its doors at 9 p.m. and it is free admission before 9:30 p.m., but must print out tickets at Evenbrite.
