Miami, FL (PRWEB) September 30, 2004
Warner Music Latina has announced the release on September 28th of SinVergüenza, the long awaited album by multiple Grammy® Award winning band BACILOS. SinVergüenza was produced by world-renowned Juan Vicente Zambrano (Celia Cruz, Ricky Martin, J-Lo) and the late Tom Capone (Maria Rita, Skank) and recorded in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and Miami, Florida. The new production is the follow-up to the mega-hit and last year’s Grammy® Award winning Best Latin Pop album Caraluna,
SinVergüenza is a fusion of genres which is most represented in BACILOS’ own members: Colombian born singer/songwriter and guitarist Jorge Villamizar, Brazilian bassist Andre Lopes and Puerto Rican percussionist and drummer José Javier (J J) Freire, together the band brings forth their own ethnicity by creating a mélange of pop, samba, tropical, alt-rock, reggae, among others and thus infusing a peculiar and very own sound.
The first promotional single “Pasos de Gigante”, was released last month and has quickly become embraced by fans and radio stations across the U.S. and Latin America “Pasos de Gigante”, written by BACILOS’ own Jorge Villamizar, is a simple love story that starts with a rhythm reminiscent of footsteps (“pasos”) and erupts into an up-tempo celebration of Colombian sounds with Haitian flavor.
SinVergüenza promises to be a more stronger and ambitious album than the group’s previous ones. “We have become very aware of our own environment,” says Villamizar. “Our songs are more intense and socially conscious, without leaving behind a higher dosage of romanticism.” The intensity, he says, comes from “being more self-confident and secure in what we are doing.”
BACILOS, who just came back from a trip to Kenya, where they filmed a TV special for Animal Planet, will be on a promotional tour, visiting Puerto Rico, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, and Chile in October; and launches their US Concert Tour in November. Dates will be forthcoming.
The video for “Pasos de Gigante” will be film in Puerto Rico shortly, and is to be directed by Carlos Perez
