A Multi-Platinum Recording Artist Who Has Already Notched Three #1 Singles, The Multi-Talented Superstar Is Also One Of The World’s Most Beloved Latin Actors

“Mujer Con Pantalones” - The First Single From PONCE –
Has Just Gone To Radio, And The Video Will Debut Shortly

Millions of Spanish TV viewers across the world are once again avidly watching Carlos Ponce every weekday afternoon. One of the most recognized Latin TV personalities in the world, Ponce is currently the featured lead actor in Univision’s newest Latin soap (telenovela) “Sin Pecado Concebido”-which just commenced a four month run on March 25. However, even with the intensive work schedule demanded in filming the show over an eight-month period, Carlos’ creativity was not satisfied. With a musical career that already matches his success as an actor, Carlos spent his precious few off hours diligently writing songs for his eagerly awaited third album. It is in these quite hours of writing that Carlos Ponce sets himself apart. In an industry that tries to craft short-lived image artists singing songs thrust upon them, Carlos Ponce devotes himself to songwriting with the same dedication as he applies to his craft of acting. The success he has achieved in both these fields is a testament to his natural ability as an entertainer.

In the songs of Carlos’ upcoming new album Ponce, listeners will find an ever growing songwriter and vocalist, but one who’s performance still conveys the same combination of intimacy and fun that has already scored three #1 singles and large collection of gold and platinum records. Helmed by Multi-Grammy Award winning music producer Emilio Estefan, Jr., Ponce is set for release April 23 by EMI Latin. Already, the album’s first single “Mujer Con Pantalones” is garnering advance attention for its championing the growing empowerment of Latina women.

Just prior to the album’s release, Carlos will treat fans to a preview of the new songs as he performs at New York City’s Madison Square Garden as a featured headliner of the 4/20 Hola New York radio festival.
