Premio Lo Nuestro 2013 Winners Highlights Performances

Univision's 2013 Premio Lo Nuestro took place last night at Miami's American Airlines Arena and the event featured a glamorous red carpet event, dazzling live performances, and a tribute to the late Mexican singer Jenni Rivera.

If you've ever seen a Latin music awards show, you know to expect a huge on-stage theatricality for almost every performance. This rang … [Read more...]

Tommy Torres

Tommy Torres has released a new video for the song "Mientras Tanto" and like always, it's filled with profound lyrics and a simple arrangement of instruments that unite to create a beautiful sound. The lyrics can be summarized as the age-old wisdom of living in the moment, for mañana es otro día y el de hoy no se ha acabado. Tommy outlines the uncertainties that lead to worries in life, reminding listeners that the oldest people appear to be the most calm because they know that everything … [Read more...]

Today I introduce you to Puerto Rican singer-songwriter Tommy Torres, who initially earned his stripes in the music industry as a producer and arranger. As ironic as it … [Read more...]
