September and the Harvest moon will be shining down on these ten great performers as they cross the country on their musical tours. I notice that there are a number of them in Las Vegas. What a great twofer - sizzling Latin music and Las Vegas night life in one big package. Put a dollar in the slots for me - we'll share the winnings!
While in Central America, the music of Ricardo Arjona was everywhere - in restaurants, buses, clubs, internet cafes - wherever people were gathered and music played. This month you can hear this articulate, street poet for youself.

Alejandro Fernandez can sing a mean ranchera with his father Vicente, but pop music is more his style. Great voice, charismatic personality and sex appeal will all be waiting for you in his one Las Vegas concert.
Pop singer Bermudez has had a great run with his current album, Todo El Ano. His new one, Lo Que Trajo El Barco is going to be released soon. You'll probably get to hear songs from both at this NY concert.
Hip-hop's Akwid, reggaeton's Voltio, New York funk fusion band Yerba Buena and Latin rock's Radio Mundial are the headliners of this magical musical tour.
