ELSTEN "FULANO" TORRES

What do you think you get when you cross a Cuban-born, New York City-raised singer/songwriter residing in Miami’s off-center culture mix? You’d most likely wind up getting the sonic kaleidoscope of Fulano (Elsten Torres). Fulano is a two-time GRAMMY-nominated and multiple BMI award-winning singer/songwriter.

 

A sprinkle of British signature pop, with a dash of Cuban Troubadour roots and a chunk of Americana heartland soul, Fulano offers a distinctive breath of fresh musical air developed through years of writing and performing all over the world. His voice resonates with the maturity of his signature expressive character effortlessly convincing in both his native tongues. The songs blend the elements of his musical sensibilities within a diverse but heartfelt multi-color landscape.


After a very active touring schedule in 2014, Fulano starts off 2015, in the studio recording his new album of his greatest hits, "Exitos Acusticos" with his long-time GRAMMY-winning producer, Rodolfo Castillo. This album highlights his biggest hits recorded by internationally known Latin artists, performed in his own unique, alternative pop, organic style. He is now on a promotional tour supporting the release of, “Exitos Acusticos”.

 

A consistently forward-thinking artist who along with his band, “Fulano De Tal” helped pioneer the Latin rock movement in the late 90’s, Fulano continues to seek new horizons to not only further his musical ideals but to also find ways of using his talents for charitable causes such as helping the homeless and the terminally ill.
