About Carlos Perez

Carlos Perez is a sonic alchemist, blending the raw energy of Latin rhythms with the introspective depth of indie rock to create a sound that feels both timeless and urgently modern. Hailing from the vibrant cultural crossroads of Miami, Perez’s music is a melting pot of influences—ranging from the percussive fire of salsa and reggaeton to the melancholic strums of shoegaze and post-punk. His voice, a gravelly yet tender instrument, carries stories of love, loss, and the immigrant experience, resonating with a generation caught between worlds. Perez first gained traction with his 2018 debut EP, *Horizontes*, a collection of songs that showcased his knack for weaving personal narratives into expansive soundscapes. His breakthrough came with the 2021 single "Cenizas," a haunting ballad that went viral on streaming platforms, earning him critical acclaim and a devoted fanbase. Since then, he has collaborated with genre-defying artists like C. Tangana and Bomba Estéreo, further cementing his reputation as a boundary-pushing innovator. Beyond his music, Perez is a cultural force, using his platform to advocate for Latinx representation in the indie scene. His recent album, *Ecos*, released in 2023, is a bold exploration of identity and memory, blending electronic textures with acoustic warmth. Currently, he’s working on a multimedia project that merges music with visual art, promising to push his artistry into uncharted territory.
