Beloved Los Angeles trio Tres Souls has been capturing the hearts of Angelenos, one ballad at a time. (ABC7)
For the last decade, Rocio Mendoza, Roberto Carlos and Jesus Martinez have serenaded audiences in L.A. and beyond, with their own interpretations of a genre called Bolero. They relive the vintage sounds and songs of the 1940s-1960s, stylized during the Golden Age of Mexican cinema. “Through their expert musicianship and swooning vocals, Tres Souls enchants audiences and transports them to a more romantic time.” (The Music Center)
Each member of the trio is an accomplished musician, and each inherited the knowledge and importance of Mexican heritage music through their family and generations before them. In their own way, Tres Souls are following in the footsteps of other “Trio Romanticos," like Eydie Gorme Y Los Panchos, Los Tres Reyes and Los Tres Ases, while interspersing musical influences that can be heard echoing through out the diaspora of Los Angeles.
Tres Souls perform around the greater Los Angeles area. Their past performances include: opening act for Omara Portuondo, The Broad Stage’s original cultural educational musical called “Musical Explorers,” AirBnB Open Spotlight, MOLAA Summer Concerts, Metro Arts Presents at Union Station, Rosenthal Theater, Casa 0101, KPFK and KXLU in studio performance, Hawaii’s 2nd Annual Barrio Café’s Sabor Fest, Walt Disney Studios for the premier of "Coco,", the Music Center 59th Annual Holiday Celebration, and most recently a sold out show at The Ford theater in Hollywood, California.
