“the definitive 21st-century New York musical act… Over the last decade Aventura has racked up millions of record sales and established a near-permanent perch in the upper reaches of Billboard’s Latin charts”- New York Times

For the urban bachata sensation Aventura, the term [crossover] is just about irrelevant… The quartet’s latest release, “The Last,” debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Latin Album chart and has remained in that spot for [14] weeks running. The record has already reached double-platinum sales, more than any other Latin release this year. … Aventura’s sold-out concert as headliners in Madison Square Garden in 2007, helped the music industry and people beyond New York take notice. Proof of the group’s broadening appeal came within months [when] Aventura sold out five concerts at the José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in San Juan last year. The tickets for the 18,500-capacity venue were sold within hours.”

– New York Daily News

“The Bronx’s Latin Chart-Toppers : Aventura is riding high: “The Last” is already this year’s best-selling Latin album…With affecting songs written by Romeo Santos and Henry Santos Jeter, and silky lead vocals backed with feathery harmonies over percolating rhythms, their multicultural form of bachata may find that broader audience….. They have a confidence born out of dedication & clear vision.”- The Wall Street Journal
