Artist BIO
Known as one of Miami's most popular "Rock en Español" bands, Tango36 is Rock n' Roll, which happens to be sung in Spanish. The dictionary defines rock n' roll as "a form of popular music arising from and incorporating a variety of musical styles," and Tango36 exemplifies this definition. It is the product of its members' diverse musical, cultural and educational backgrounds.
Tango36 was formed in 1991 in Miami, Florida by lead singer Jorge Delgado, guitarist Jorge Garcia and drummer and backup singer Carlos Garcia-Menocal. After a few changes in the lineup, Tango36 was finally completed years later when guitarist Daniel Lazo and bass player Ricardo Bigai joined the band. This combination proved effective as it added the final ingredient for Tango36 to achieve its signature raw energy sound.
Although influences are diverse and many (U2, Led Zeppellin, Soda Stereo, The Police, The Smiths, Stone Temple Pilots, Dave Mathews Band, La Ley, among others), and the lineage of Tango36 can be found in Anglo rock of the late 70's, 80's and 90's, their melodies and lyrics are true to the band's Hispanic heritage. Add them up and the result is a formula for rock n' roll that transcends any language. This is evident in their fans –it is not uncommon to find non-Spanish speakers at their live performances- as well as the bands they have been invited to play alongside of, Three Doors Down and Godsmack, for example, with whom they shared a stage at Zeta's Banzai Festival in 2003. They have also performed with Grammy winners and international acts such as Aterciopelados, Bacilos, Cabas, Los Rabanes, La Secta All Star, Volumen Cero, Los de Adentro, and Jorge Correa, to name a few.
Following the release of their debut album, Camino al Sol (Circo Records/Sony-BMG), Tango36 is already gaining international recognition and steadily amassing a remarkable following. Their website (tango36.com) and MySpace page (myspace.com/tango36) have enabled fans all over the world to hear ...
