Ricardo Arjona

Edgar Ricardo Arjona Morales, known professionally as Ricardo Arjona, is a celebrated Guatemalan singer-songwriter, who has made an indelible mark on the Latin music scene with his poetic lyrics and an eclectic mix of sounds that thread through pop, rock, Cuban and folk music styles. Born on January 19, 1964, in Jocotenango, Arjona spent his early years navigating the complexities of being a basketball player, a school teacher, and later dedicating himself entirely to music.

Arjona began his music career in the 1980s, but it was the release of his album "Animal Nocturno" in 1993 that brought him widespread recognition in Latin America. Known for his lyrical depth, often addressing themes such as love, sexuality, and political and social issues, he has captured audiences with his straightforward, yet poignant narratives of everyday life. Over the years, he has released an array of successful albums and singles, which reflect not only his creative evolution but also his commitment to authenticity and storytelling. His recent projects, such as "Negro," the sequel to the album "Blanco," and the introspective "Hecho a la Antigua," exhibit Arjona's continued relevance and artistic exploration. With recordings such as "Fluye" and "Ella Sabe," he keeps his sound fresh while maintaining the emotional resonance that has characterized his work for decades. Unabashedly original, Arjona remains a beloved and influential figure in the pantheon of Latin American music artists.
