Carin Leon Gets Personal In Acoustic Performance at Latin AMAs 2024
Written by djfrosty on April 25, 2024
Carín León, fresh from announcing his upcoming tour and news that he’ll be opening up one of The Rolling Stones’ shows, performed a sparse yet totally satisfying rendition of his recently released single “Cuando La Vida Sea Trago” on the 2024 Latin American Music Awards on Thursday night (April 25).
León, wearing his cowboy hat, kicked off the song from a couch, singing intently and accompanied by his band, with the tuba as a lead instrument.
There were no dancers in sight, but there was no need for them. The real stars of this performance were León’s passionate vocals and the eloquent lyrics: “Yo soy el dolor de cabeza de las suegras de la familia soy la oveja negra/ de chamaco siempre di problemas y preocupación (I’m a mother-in-law’s headache, the black sheep of the family; as a kid, I was always trouble and worry).”
“Cuando la vida sea trago” was penned by León with hitmakers Edgar Barrera and Keityn and Luis Miguel Castellanos.
The 2024 Latin American Music Awards took place Thursday, April 25, live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas via Univision.
Hitmakers Feid and Peso Pluma lead this year’s list of nominations with 12 nods each. The Colombian singer and Mexican star, who are up for the coveted artist of the year award and album of the year award, are followed by top nominees Bad Bunny (11), Grupo Frontera (11), Karol G (9), Shakira (9), Eslabon Armado (8) and Fuerza Regida (8).
Tickets to León’s Boca Chueca Tour 2024 will go on presale April 30 with general sale May 1. The tour kicks off July 22 in Paso Robles, California.
