Biography,Carlos Vives was born on 7 August 1961 in Santa Marta, Magdalena, Colombia, where he spent his first 12 years of life. At that age, he and his family moved to Bogota in search of a better life. They lived with Diego Martinez and his family. He enrolled in Jorge Tadeo Lozano University and holds a publicist degree from the university. In Bogota, he also acquired a taste for rock, getting involved in the local music scene, and started playing in bars and cafes around the city.1982–1989In 1982, Vives began acting in a number of shows and telenovelas including Pequenos Gigantes (Little Giants – 1983) and Tuyo es Mi Corazon (Yours is My Heart – 1985). He finally found fame in 1986 by playing the title role of Gallito Ramirez, which told the story of a Colombian Caribbean coast boxer who falls in love with an uptight girl, who was portrayed by his first wife, Margarita Rosa de Francisco. That same year, he released his first album, Por Fuera y Por Dentro. The album, primarily made of ballads, failed to gain any success. In 1987, he released his second ballad album, No Podras Escapar de Mi. Though the title track reached No. 30 on the Billboard Hot Latin Tracks, the album did not sell well. His next album, Al Centro de la Ciudad, would become his last album to feature synthesizer-romantic ballads. Some of the songs got some attention being featured in telenovelas, but the album, just as its predecessors, failed to gain success.In 1989, he was offered an acting job in Puerto Rico, and upon moving, he took a break in his music career. He is remembered for his leading roles in the soaps La Otra and Aventurera. He married Herlinda Gomez, his second wife (they have since divorced). Vives would spend his time between Colombia, Miami and the city of Mayaguez, Herlindas hometown, during his marriage to her.Since 1991Carlos VivesUpon his return to Colombia in 1991, he was offered a TV role that would change his life forever. He was cast in the leading role of a fantasy series based in the life of vallenato composer Rafael Escalona called, not surprisingly, Escalona. He sang the composers songs in the series, and thats when he retooled his career towards vallenato, gaining national success with the release of the Telenovelas two soundtrack albums, Escalona: Un Canto a la Vida and Escalona: Vol. 2.In 1993, backed by the band La Provincia, Vives released the album Clasicos de la Provincia in which he started fusing Vallenato with rock, pop and other Caribbean Colombian ethnic rhythms. This fusion scandalized Vallenato purists. This style of vallenato was a huge success not only in Colombia but all over Latin countries, and the albums lead single, La Gota Fria, became a hit all over Latin America. Clasicos de la Provincia, won the Billboard Latin Music Awards Best Album and would become a timeless classic in Colombian and Latin American music, introducing Vallenato to both Colombia and the rest of the world.The follow-up album, La Tierra del Olvido would mark a further step in Vives desire to fusion rock, funk and pop music with traditional Colombian genres. The album gave Vives classic hits such as the title track, and the up-tempo opening track Pa Mayte.His subsequent releases, Tengo Fe (1997), El Amor de Mi Tierra (1999), Dejame Entrar (2001) and El Rock de Mi Pueblo (2004), were all commercially successful and were well received by the critics. In 2002 Carlos Vives album Dejame Entrar won him his first Grammy award for Best Traditional Tropical Latin Album.In 2009 he released the album Clasicos de la Provincia II, which was sold exclusively in Colombian supermarket chain Almacenes Exito. The album saw Vives return to covering famous Vallenato songs in his own style. It sold massively and the single Las Mujeres received wide radio airplay in all Colombia.His hits include Matilde Lina, La Hamaca Grande, La gota fria, Alicia Adorada, Pa Mayte, La Tierra del Olvido, Tu Amor Eterno, Fruta Fresca, Dejame Entrar, Luna Nueva, Carito, Papadio, Como Tu and Decimas Del Parecido (this last one a tribute to Guillermo Martinez, a Cuban-born radio host who resides in Mayaguez, and for whose program Vives was an occasional master control technician).CurrentIn 2012 Carlos Vives began a new era in television and music.With more than 40 songs written in that year, the new album was released in April 2013 and featured 11 tracks.
