Los Angeles, CA — Colombian superstar Juanes returns to the Hollywood Bowl on Wednesday, September 5, 2018 for a musical journey through his greatest hits as well his latest chart-topping album Mis Planes Son Amarte.
Born and raised in Medellín, Colombia, Juan Esteban Aristizábal – better known as Juanes – has become Latin Rock’s leading global ambassador. Hailed by TIME as “one of the 100 Most-Influential People in the World,” and The New York Times as “Latin America’s hottest singer-songwriter… a soulful poet with electric guitar,” Juanes has built a distinctive sound that fuses his love of rock and pop music with smartly crafted, multi-layered songwriting and a deep reverence for the traditional folk and other indigenous rhythms of Colombia and Latin America.
Juanes is also a dedicated global activist, with wide ranging charitable work for his own Mi Sangre Foundation (spotlighted in a special Billboard Philanthropy issue) and as a co-founder of the “Paz sin Fronteras” (Peace Without Borders) organization which utilizes music to unite populaces regardless of political or geographic divides and advocates that all people are entitled to the basic human right of peace.
Juanes made his Hollywood Bowl debut in 2012 when he performed with a full orchestra – the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, conducted by Thomas Wilkins – for the first time ever, joined by the LA Phil’s YOLA (Youth Orchestra Los Angeles) at EXPO Chamber Orchestra.
Single tickets, subscriptions and “Five or More” packages for the Hollywood Bowl 2018 summer season are available online at HollywoodBowl.com or via phone at 323.850.2000.
The concert is part of the LA Phil’s Jazz at the Bowl series.
