The genre of Boleros originated in Cuba then it made its way into Mexico in the 1940s. Three piece bands were known to perform this style of music and now we have a new generation of artists:
Tres Souls, comprised of members Roberto Carlos, Jesús Martínez, and Rocio Mendoza represent a revival of “Trio Romántico,” music. They relive the vintage sounds and songs of the 1940’s -1960’s Bolero style that was popularized during the ‘Golden Era of Mexican Cinema.’ Tres Souls create a festive and nostalgic celebration. They offer their own unique interpretation of this timeless sound, interspersed with bilingual renditions, bridging the borders between their past and present.
Tres Souls perform around the greater Los Angeles area. Their past performances include: The Broad Stage’s original cultural educational musical called, “Musical Explorers”, Air BnB Open Spotlight, MOLAA, Metro Arts Presents at Union Station, Plaza De Cultura Y Artes, Rosenthal Theater, Casa 0101, KPFK, KXLU, at the Walt Disney Studios for the premier of 'Coco' the movie and recently for the Music Center 59th Holiday Celebration on PBS.
Tres Souls is dedicated to the preservation of Bolero music and released their EP album on February 2019 which includes original songs and classic bolero tunes. Their music is available on all digital platforms.
