En Vivo
Over fifteen years ago, a group of well-talented musicians formed a band that is known today as En Vivo, a Latin Style band comprised of six well-talented and seasoned musicians. They originally formed as “Amigos” and maintained that name for many years. However, in 2009, after having to share the name Amigos with other known bands, they made a decision to change their name to “En Vivo”, which captures the essence of their energetic and lively sound.
En Vivo is known for their smooth yet rich quality of sound and energy with their original songs as well as their own arranged favorite cover-tunes. As En Vivo performs, they keep their crowd dancing and moving while also having the ability to touch their hearts with the soul and words of their original music.
