Juan Luis Guerra
Internationally acclaimed Latin artist Juan Luis Guerra’s music blends merengue, bachata, pop, and jazz. He began his music career in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic composing jingles for advertisements. Now, he is a three-time Grammy Award winner.
In the early 1980s, Guerra formed the group 440 (“Four Forty” or, in Spanish, “Cuatro Cuarenta”). The band gained popularity in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s with the success of their albums Ojalá Que Llueva Café and Bachata Rosa, the latter of which earned Guerra a Grammy Award. Bachata Rosa sold over 5 million copies and allowed Guerra to tour Latin America, Europe, and the U.S.
In 2007, the Latin Recording Academy named Guerra Person of the Year and the Dominican Senate named him the National Singer-Songwriter. You can catch the iconic Dominican performer live in Orlando on Saturday, June 4, 2022, at 8 p.m.
