16 Apr Boleros de Noche Presents the soulful singer and legendary guitarist JOSE FELICIANO
August 3, 2024, at The Ford
Vesper Public Relations. Los Angeles, CA (April 2024) — Captivating audiences for nearly a decade, the 8th annual Boleros de Noche, presents none other than the 9-time Grammy award-winning recording artist Jose Feliciano at The Ford Theatre.
This year elevating its production once more, we are working in partnership with Jose Feliciano to have an all Bolero repertoire performance. To once again revisit his musical roots, Boleros.
The soulful singer and legendary guitarist will be performing his bolero classics like, ‘Poquita fe, Cuando Pienso En Ti, Como Fue, En Mi Viejo San Juan’ and many more!
Puerto Rican-born guitar wizard José Feliciano has earned nine Grammy awards and 45 gold and platinum records while becoming one of the first Spanish-language artists to find an audience in the English music market. With hits like, “Poquita Fe” and “Usted,” Feliciano makes bolero standards sound fresh and new with his distinctive acoustic guitar style that combines the traditional with jazz and American rock influences. LA trio Tres Souls, led by vocalist Rocio Libertad, will open the night singing classics such as, “Sabor a Mi,” “Perdon,” “Sin Un Amor” and more!
Representing the new generation of bolero music made in Los Angeles, Los Caramelos will be opening the night. Formed in Boyle Heights, California, in September of 2023 by Dominick Maldonado (First Voice, Requinto) and Matthew Jacquez (Second Voice, Guitar). The addition of Miguel A. Balán (Third Voice) and Larry M. Harvey II (percussion) brought bolero moderno to life once again in Los Angeles. Together, they create vocal harmony and sounds that seem to come straight from the record.
Los Caramelos pay homage to the great Mexican tríos of the 1950s, such as Los Tres Ases and Los Tres Caballeros. Both of these groups added a touch of Jazz to the genre of bolero, which was very popular in the 1940s.
We would like to thank Highland Park Cafe for their continued support.
ABOUT BOLEROS DE NOCHE:
Boleros De Noche is an annual music event series launched in 2015 as an effort to preserve, uplift, and celebrate Latin American bolero music in Los Angeles created by Roberto Carlos.
Boleros De Noche is committed to the coordination of quality cultural events that convene an intergenerational audience to share live bolero music. Since its launch, Boleros De Noche has presented over 15 successful concerts featuring international and local artists. We are inspired by the ability of musicians to create an experience of deep emotions through music and being an innovative force that leaves a positive social impact.
Some of our accomplishments in the past three years include our advocacy efforts being recognized by the City Of Los Angeles to officially declare August 5th “Dia Del Bolero.” With over 500 applicants to the LA County Performing Arts Recovery Grant, Boleros De Noche was one of only 40 chosen winners based on their positive contributions to the LA performing arts sector. In the last three years, we sold out shows at the Ford Theatre with notable Grammy award winners such as Gaby Moreno, Marisoul from La Santa Cecilia, and the iconic legendary trio Los Panchos. In 2025 we will be taking Boleros De Noche to Symphony Center in Chicago, Illinois.
