Background

Osvaldo was born in Chile and spent most of his adult life in San Juan, Puerto Rico.  He is the son of renown singer, “El Indio Araucano”, who enjoyed tremendous success in South and Central America and resides currently resides in New Jersey. 

 

As a teenager in Chile, Osvaldo recorded for Odeon, where he mostly performed Rock and Twist.  He moved to Puerto Rico as a young man, where music became a hobby.  Since moving to Vancouver in 1995, he has dedicated 100% of his time to music again.

 

 

Osvaldo’s Music Style

0svaldo is a talented vocalist who sings in Spanish while playing a Godin midi synthesizer guitar. You will find the best mix of Latin music, smooth jazz, Latin Jazz, soft rock, eclectic and world beat in his shows.

 

Osvaldo performs mostly in fine-dining restaurants, lounges, special events and for private parties. He also delights the Seniors in Seniors' residences with a versatile show. His audiences greatly appreciate his warm baritone voice as well as his musical versatility; he can perform everything from a Tango to a Bolero, Salsa, Merengue, Cumbia, Flamenco, and  Smooth Jazz, and all the ballroom dance rhythms including ChaCha, Samba, Waltz, Rumba and Bolero, Fox Trot, and Swing.  Osvaldo can please a quiet dine ’n' dance lounge type setting, or get a crowd moving on the dance floor. 

 

His act can either be solo, or duo and/or trio.  He can add a percussionist &/or a saxophone player to the gig.  The single act is ideal when you have very limited space, or for a smaller crowd and budget.  The duo is ideal for mid-sized venues, private parties, weddings, etc.  The trio is fabulous for larger parties/venues.
