“More than 40 years after becoming the most successful Latino folk rocker ever, Trini Lopez is generating some new buzz.

He received a Lifetime Entertainment Award from Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger in November at the first Latinos of Distinction Awards Dinner in Ontario. He was inducted into the Las Vegas Walk of Stars in May. And in November, he’ll host a PBS special at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles with 10 guest artists of his choosing.

Lopez, who semi-retired to his Palm Springs home in 1981, has sold more than 100 million copies of his 63 albums, by his biographer’s estimate, but he’s hottest outside of America.”*
