LA GENTE NARANJA
La Gente Naranja is an energetic Ecuadorian Rock en Español band based in Miami, Florida. La Gente Naranja started in 2009 with band members Eddie Garcia (vocals and guitar), Jose Nouel (drums) and Diego Saa (vocals and bass guitar). The group made its first breakthrough in 2010 with the release of the music video for their first single “Luz al Sur”, and their debut album of the same name. The band was born out of a sentiment shared by millions of people with a thirst for a new sound to identify their generation with…plus, they wear oranges on their heads!

ULISES CALOZ
Ulises Caloz is the “true independent artist.” With his self-produced debut album, “9 years” in the making, Ulises Caloz presents us with 12 original pop/rock tracks filled with powerful lyrics and instantly appealing melodies. Ulises Caloz’s self-produced debut album, “9 years” in the making, presents us with 12 original pop/rock tracks filled with powerful lyrics and instantly appealing melodies. Featuring some of Miami’s finest musical talents, this album elevates the familiar sounds of today’s mainstream latin music to a new level. In songs like “Que Se Sentira” (What does it feel) a beatleish styled ballad produced alongside well re-known latin producer and artist *MonteRosa*, you will undoubtely connect with the nostalgic behind many of Ulises Caloz’s songs. “Te Estoy Rogando ” (I Am Begging You), an uptempo track that dweels on the desperation for forgiveness of a man’s human imperfections which has cost him the love of his life. With his
independent release of “9 years”, Ulises celebrates the latin pop/rock music that has influenced him since his early years growing up in his natal Cali, Colombia and pays tribute to all those who with hard-work and perseverence are able to bring to an audience the magic of their craft.

ODAS
One of the best Latino Pop/Rock bands to come out of South Florida. By popular demand, ODAS returns! Their new album “Al Final” is packed with amazing songs packed with stories of love, triumph, pain, and anguish. ODAS’ members, Karla Iriarte (vocals), Calors Iriarte (electric guitar), Victor Hugo (acoustic guitar and vocals), Camilo Machado (bass), form a powerful musical force and a “band to watch.” Formed in 2005, ODAS debut album “5 Sentidos” exploded in the South Florida scene and they became one of the most talked about bands. ODAS has a distinctive sound that stays true to their Bolivian roots while taking Rock/Pop to new heights and represents the potential that can be achieved as an independent band.
