Today we’re looking at a whole new realm of music outside of the indie-alt-rock-bubble: Latin.  Andres Del Mar, a Chilean singer/musician, leads us into this unexplored genre with his songs “Contando Estrellas” and “Quizás, Tal Vez, No Sé”–two pop heavy tunes made sexy from a Spanish roll of the tongue.  My only experience with Latin pop/rock is with Juanes, and these songs are definitely along those same lines.  Me gusta.

According to my somewhat unreliable Spanish translating skills, Del Mar has been surrounded and interested in music from a young age.  He comes from a musical family, with an opera-singing grandmother and an Aunt singing in a Latin group called Fulano. After his previous band, Vitelo, dissolved, he began his solo career and has been working on that ever since. Be sure to check out Andres Del Mar‘s album, A Proposito de Nada que Ver, here.
