For segment 1 of our show, our first guest is a lover of Tejano music. Al Muniz not only was a presenter last year for the Tejano Music Awards, but he is also a VOCALIST, MUSICIAN, COMPOSER, ARRANGER, PRODUCER, PROMOTER, VOICE-OVER ARTIST and ACTOR. He was born in San Pedro CA, grew up in Santa Fe NM, and has resided in Albuquerque NM for over 25 years. Throughout all of that he also considers himself a part time resident of San Antonio. Muniz has been involved in the Tejano Industry for over 15 yrs. While in the music Industry for over 40yrs. The first time Muniz heard Tejano music at a very young age, it immediately grabbed his attention because it reminded him of Mariachi music, but orchestrated. Tonight we talk about his new album coming out. For his new album, Muniz is working with Gilbert Velasquez (Quincy Jones of Tejano music) who is a renowned producer who has won 13 Grammies and is known for working with legendary Tejano musicians (to include Selena).
I will be playing one of Al’s songs titled: El Solitario at the end of segment 1 — A song Muniz worked with Gilbert lopez … Heir to Jerry Lopez who is a member of the well known New Mexican band via Santa Fe and the Fat City Horns! Out of all the MP3 song files Al sent me, this is my favorite and I can’t figure out why.
I will play another song of his after Segment 2 interview with Raydeance titled Me Lo Dijiste, too.
Our 2nd guest is the beautiful Raydeance. Raydeance Light is a Blues/ jazz singer, an Actress, a Model (for pin up, the runway, and more), and she is the Editor for Ink & Rhythm Magazine, too! Tune in to this up and coming artist who is working on a new album in Seattle, Washington. She will give us a little acapella during the interview. She discusses the charitable organizations she is involved with and much, much more! Be sure to visit Raydeance’s website at: http://www.raydeance.com/ !
