Leslie Grace Be My Baby The Ronettes 2013

In less than a year, Leslie Grace has revolutionized bachata music.  The debut single “Will you Still Love Me Tomorrow,” a cover of the popular song by the Shirelles, quickly catapulted her to the stage at the 2012 Premios Juventud show and earned her the honor of being the youngest Latina to top the Billboard Latin charts.  She followed up with the current hit “Day One,” which also has enjoyed the #1 position on the Latin Tropical Chart.  Following her recent nomination at the 2013 … [Read more...]

Leslie Grace Top Stop Music Showcase

After a long day of Latin Billboard Conferences, indie label Top Stop Music flexed it's muscles by hosting a magnificent showcase at Miami's Grand Central.  The night featured performances by a mix of tropical singers - most of whom were accompanied by a Live Band! - but the one interview I was hoping to land was with bachata singer Leslie Grace.  While I was fortunate enough to sit down with the high school senior and record the audio for an upcoming podcast episode, a faulty memory card … [Read more...]

The Zumba Solution:  It was interesting to hear that the founders … [Read more...]
