New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Andrés Cepeda, renowned four-time Latin Grammy Award winner and Platinum-selling Colombian singer, songwriter & producer who has profoundly impacted the world with his extraordinary music and live performances has announced his highly anticipated Tengo Ganas ("I Want") U.S. tour. The 18 date trek is set to launch in
Spring 2024 and will feature Colombian singer-songwriter Alejandro Santamaria as a special guest.
Whereas Andres' acclaimed La Ruta Púrpura tour offered fans a more organic sound, Tengo Ganas will see the iconic artist creating a dynamic new musical environment for his audiences in the United States, promising an exciting and energetic show that is sure to get fans up and dancing all night long and that will remind them of Cepeda's remarkable, unmatched artistic versatility.
"Unlike La Ruta Púrpura, which was based on acoustic sounds of the grand piano, double bass and winds, this new Tengo Ganas Tour makes an immersion in the opposite pole of my career. This tour is Pop, it is Rock, it is electric guitars, synths and drums,"
Cepeda shares.
The 18-date tour will kick off April 9, 2024, at City Winery in Nashville and will head to the West Coast to thrill audiences in Seattle, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.
Cepeda will then make multiple stops in the Midwest, delivering performances in Dallas and Houston, before making his awaited return to the East Coast, where he will present shows in cities such as Miami and Washington, D.C., among others. This tour will also include a stop at New York City's prestigious Carnegie Hall on May 1, where
Cepeda previously presented his La Ruta Púrpura Tour in October 2022 with resounding success.
As Andrés announces his new 2024 tour, he is also currently celebrating 12 seasons as a judge on the hit TV show The Voice (La Voz) and his fourth Latin Grammy Award win for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album, in recognition of his widely acclaimed 2023 Gold certified album Décimo Cuarto, featuring the Platinum certified hit singles - "No Se Querer," "Si Todo Se Acaba," and "Lo Que Habia Olvidado".
Alejandro Santamaria is a Colombian singer-songwriter who will be accompanying Andrés
Cepeda on these 18 shows across the United States. He is presenting a musical set that blends the pop genre with the sound arrangements of rock, punk, urban, and ballads. His ability to compose has led him to write alongside Mau & Ricky, Andrés Saavedra, Camilo, Andrés Cepeda, Maya, Keityn, Mapache, Yera, Ovy On The Drums, among others, allowing him to create honest songs with stories that have left his personal mark on the music industry.
