Elson Torres
Being an original has never been a problem for the Cuban born, NYC raised singer-songwriter Elsten Torres. “Be yourself everyone else is already taken” is not only his favorite quote from Oscar Wilde, but also his personal motto.
A musical pioneer, having been credited as one of the prominent creators of the Latin Alternative Rock sound of the late 90’s in the USA, this eclectic and unconventional musician has cemented his artistic fingerprints in the music industry for over 3 decades now.
Elsten is a multicultural bilingual artist who has performed on stages all over the world as well as an award winning songwriter with major international hits. He has earned two GRAMMY nominations, two BMI songwriting awards, and six Billboard top ten hits throughout his career. Starting in 1994, with the Afro Cuban/Rock influenced hit, “Revolucion” (Revolution) under the moniker “Fulano De Tal”, Elsten began his recording trajectory with flying colors. Subsequently, he forms the band, “Fulano” and is signed to BMG/SONY Records and Warner Music Publishing, where his career takes off at an unstoppable velocity. He is often regarded as one of the true songsmiths of his generation for his uncanny ability to write songs that become instant classics in both Spanish and English and that appeal to a vast worldwide audience. In 2016, Elsten released his greatest hits album, “Exitos Acusticos” (Acoustic Hits) yet he continues to move forward in his musical journey as the always-creative chameleon forging ahead to new musical landscapes. He is currently working on his 10th full-length record, tentatively titled, “Real Artificial” and he is also involved as the host of a musical songwriting travel show currently under production in Miami, Florida.
Naida Lynn
Naida Lynn is a passionate singer/songwriter who is known for her raw, authentic music and warm, sultry voice.
Usually accompanied with just her voice & guitar, her style can be described as soul-rock with subtle folk influences.
Most people who have seen her perform note the brightness of her smile yet the realness of what she sings about.
Comparisons are often drawn to likes of Lauryn Hill, India Arie, or Lauren Daigle.
