ASCAP to Honor Victor Manuelle and Black Guayaba at 16th Annual Latin Music Awards on May 16 in Miami

Filed under [ Hispanic News ] [ Musica ] [ Press Releases ] [ Blogante Entertainment ]
Tags: , , , , , , , , , ,

“The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) will honor Victor Manuelle and Black Guayaba at its 16th Annual Latin Music Awards on May 16, 2008 at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Miami Beach. The black tie gala will also honor the songwriters and publishers of ASCAP’s most performed songs in Latin Music of 2007.

Victor Manuelle will be honored with the ASCAP Golden Note Award, which is presented to songwriters, composers, and artists who have achieved extraordinary career milestones, and Black Guayaba will receive the ASCAP Vanguard Award in recognition of their impact, as new and developing musical artists, on shaping the future of their musical genre and the future of music.

Victor Manuelle has amassed significant achievements as a singer and songwriter and continues to be a familiar voice to Latin Music fans ever since his first album was released in 1993. Since then, he has produced chart-toping albums with substantial radio hits every single year. In March 2004, his album “Travesía,” produced by Emilio Esfefan, went to #1 on the Latin Billboard charts. In 2005, he released two live albums: “Victor Manuelle En Vivo Desde El Carnegie Hall,” recorded at Carnegie Hall, and “Dos Soneros…Una Historia” (Two Soneros…One Story), from his historical collaboration with Gilberto Santarosa, recorded live at the Roberto Clemente Coliseum in Puerto Rico. In 2007, he released his DVD “En Vivo Desde El Madison Square Garden,” and under his own record label, Kiyavi, his first Christmas album “Una Navidad a Mi Estilo” (Christmas My Style), which became an instant classic of new compositions of traditional Puerto Rican music. Victor Manuelle has thirteen musical productions to his credit, has achieved several #1 radio hits of his own authorship and has sold over two million albums.

Victor Manuelle joins an elite list of ASCAP members who have been honored with the ASCAP Golden Note Award, including Garth Brooks, Jose Feliciano, Quincy Jones, Sean “Diddy” Combs, Tom Petty, Joan Sebastian and Stevie Wonder, among others.

The members of Grammy Award-winning rock band Black Guayaba are the first Latin music artists to be recognized with the ASCAP Vanguard Award. Other notable recipients include The All-American Rejects, The Beastie Boys, Beck and Bjork, among others.

In a short amount of time, Black Guayaba — formed by Gustavo González (vocalist), Javier Morales (guitar), Carlos Ortíz (bass), Carlos Colón (keyboards) and Gabriel Calero (drums) — has earned a solid fan base and has been recognized for their unique style and genre-affecting sound. They originally began playing at local pubs and private events before preparing original material for their first album. They released “Lo Demás es Plástico” in 2005, which was produced by Bob St. John, who had previously worked with Ricky Martin, Duran Duran and Collective Soul, among others. The album spawned several hit singles, such as “Lejos,” “Atrapado,” and “Despacio.” It was that success which gave them the opportunity of being the opening act for bands Enanitos Verdes and Journey during their concerts in Puerto Rico. They had their first concert at the Luis A. Ferré Performing Arts Center in March 2006, the same year they were nominated for a Latin Grammy and a Grammy. In 2007, the band released their second album titled, “No Hay Espacio,” featuring the single “Sin Tu Amor.” In February 2008 they won their first Grammy in the category of Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album.

ASCAP’s Latin Music Awards is one of the most attended and celebrated events in the Latin entertainment community. Victor Manuelle and Black Guayaba join a select list of Latin music icons that have been singled out for special recognition at ASCAP’s Latin Music Awards, including Antonio Aguilar, Ricardo Arjona, Rubén Blades, Celia Cruz, Franco De Vita, José Feliciano, Ednita Nazario, Tito Puente, Arturo Sandoval, Joan Sebastian, Gilberto Santa Rosa and Olga Tañón.

During the May 16th event, ASCAP will also recognize the Songwriter of the Year, Publisher of the Year and Song of the Year, and Awards will be presented in the following categories: Pop, Tropical, Regional Mexican, Rock, Urban and Television.

Spanish Pop Star David Bisbal on V-me’s Estudio Billboard Tuesday, January 8 and Sunday, December 13

Filed under [ Entertainment ] [ Hispanic News ] [ Musica ] [ Press Releases ] [ Blogante Entertainment ]
Tags: , , , , , , , ,

“Spanish pop star, David Bisbal appears on V-me’s Estudio Billboard January 8 at 10:00pm(ET) with encore on January 13 at 8:00pm.

After performing unnoticed for five years in a local Spanish indie band, David Bisbal appeared in 2001 on the Spanish music reality show, Operación Triunfo where he finished as first runner up. Quickly signed to a recording contract, he launched an international career that includes the 2003 Latin Grammy for Best New Artist. “I didn’t set out to win Operación Triunfo, I just wanted to share my music. I prayed every night to have someone hear me and give me a chance.”

David Bisbal speaks with host Leila Cobo about his family and the inspiration he gets from them. He also reflects on the hardships of touring and being away from the people he loves most, and the challenges of life in the media spotlight. “Somehow with music, everything turns positive, even some issues in the media. I’ve always known that my music and the people I love are like a shield to me.”

While David Bisbal is an international pop star, he explains that he tries to add a little touch of his homeland in every song — drawing on his roots in Southern Spain. On Estudio Billboard he performs a very traditional Spanish song dedicated to his homeland, Almería, tierra noble, along with the award-winning Amar es lo que quiero from his latest album, Premonición.

Estudio Billboard is a new music and interview series developed by V-me, in collaboration with Billboard Magazine and hosted by Billboard’s Leila Cobo, the ultimate Latin music insider. Taped before an intimate live audience, Latin artists reveal new insights into their lives, careers, musical influences and much more. Top Latin artists such as Ricardo Montaner, Maná, Franco de Vita, Daniela Mercury, Jose Feliciano, Gloria Estefan and Daddy Yankee who have also appeared on the program. The season airs in the United States through 2007 and 2008. Estudio Billboard is presented in Spanish with subtitles (closed captioning) in English.

Presented locally by public TV stations and carried on basic digital cable in many U.S. cities and nationally on DIRECTV and DIRECTV Más Ch 440, DISH Network Ch 9414 and DISHLatino Ch 846. To find specific channel information for your market visit www.VmeTV.com“*

I am like an open book: anyone can read my sorrows and happiness.” Gloria Trevi shared that while some may see her as controversial, she believes that newer generations can act with freedom that others have not had before.

Explaining that all the events of her life can be found in her music, Gloria Trevi shares that she created the song Todos Me Miran after learning she was pregnant and had to reinvent her career. “I’ve never contradicted myself. I think I’ve evolved but never changed my essence. When I go onstage, I start changing according to the song I’m performing and that’s when people see Gloria Trevi from the early years.”

During the interview, Gloria Trevi sings her classic hits, El Recuento de los Daños and Me Siento Tan Sola and two songs from her latest release, Todos Me Miran and Psicofonia.
