The Sergio George’s Salsa Giants project
Sergio George’s Salsa Giants was unveiled in summer of 2012 at the Curacao North Sea Jazz Festival in front of over 12,000 music fans.
The project, which was released in a CD/DVD production, was a once in a lifetime concert experience as a select group of illustrious salsa musicians came together for a historical one-night event.
Salsa hits included are “Fabricando Fantasías,” “De Mí Enamorate,” Discúlpeme Señora,” “Lo Que Está Pa’ Ti,” “Rebelión,” “Yo No Se Mañana,” “Un Verano En Nueva York,” “Llorarás” and “Tu Amor Me Hace Bien.”
The official tour kicks off after Sergio George swept three Latin GRAMMY awards last year for Producer of the Year, Record of the Year and Best Salsa Album for the Salsa Giants.
Sergio Geroge’s famed salsa-group performed live at the 14th Annual Latin Grammy Awards last year, closing the event.
The project is nominated for the 2014 GRAMMY award for Best Tropical Latin Album.
