Orquesta de la Luz, Japan’s proudly Latin salsa band, will ignite Billboard Live with scorching Latin beats! Their debut album De La Luz, released in 1990, topped the US Latin charts for 11 consecutive weeks, and since then they have continued to thrive worldwide, earning the UN Peace Prize, receiving Grammy nominations, and touring in 23 countries. Last year they released an album to mark their 40th anniversary, featuring contributions from Latin music luminaries Tony Skar, Naoto Inti Raymi, Maki Ohguro, and Touma Rose, which topped the Latin charts on iTunes in Panama, Russia, Kenya, and Japan. It drew huge attention. This year marks their 35th anniversary since debut, with a best-of album release and overseas tours planned. Look forward to a special show under the theme “Japan Latinization Plan,” wrapped in their energetic, joy-filled music.
