Cesarios
"Waltzmenco - Jazzmenco - Folkmenco - Rockmenco - Salsamenco"
After more than a decade performing in cruise ships around the world, Cesar Rios has come up with a repertory of 3500 songs without repeating one, unless requested by the audiences. Cesar made some great fusion of flamenco, jazz and top 40's music, and has now reached even loftier heights with his debut solo demo productions.
On the current recordings this amazing artist crafts a lush world music variety including songs from Greece, Peru, USA, Italy and Japan, featuring 15 virtual musicians in virtual tracks from Garage Band and Protools, each chart Cesar writes has a unique feeling for live performance purposes.
Audiences describe Cesarios's music as "a unique genre-busting collection of Latin, Indian, Persian, Arabic, South American and European sounds." His music style is unconfined by genre restrictions and embraces a spirit of different creative possibility and wide-reaching artistic vision.
Cesar Rios was born in Peru and raised in the US. His mother had an accident when he was 5, Maria Carrion (Cesars's Mother) lost her vision sight, product of an accident in Peru in 1979, she became blind and Cesar's first musical notes started at same time when all this sad developments where happening, He has as mentor and inspiration his mother and family.
Cesarios developed a love for the Spanish guitar at the age of 5 , later on when he discovered the recordings of classical guitar maestro, Paco de Lucia. He put aside what had been his secondary instruments since - the piano and the accordion - and dedicated himself to learning the music of the great Spanish composers that different artist popularized.
Through private own self study and with encouragement and inspiration from playing guitar by ear, Cesar quickly developed his own expressive voice on the guitar and honed an uncommonly dexterous classical fingerstyle technique that he exclusively uses to this day.
At the age of 16 he plays in peruvian local rock bands like Lapso and Wap. At 17 he travels to Miami and later concentrates on music as a carrier and his first performances take place in the USA with Peruvian national artist Pedrito Otiniano. Afterwards he play in shows with Lucho Barrios, Jhonny Farfan, Lucila Campos, Jesus Vazques, Guiller and others in Little Habana, Florida.
By his early twenties, Rios's keen sense of rhythm, knack for composition, and love for improvisation led him away from the classical repertoire and in the direction of the rhythmically enticing Spanish folk guitar styles and the improvisational freedom of Latin Jazz, Waltz, Afro and South American music.
Soon he does a crossover to Salsa, Cesarios starts his arrangements on his own with different cuban influences. His career on cruise ships starts with small ships like Discovery Cruise Lines, then, he joins RCCL, NCL, Elysian, Club Cruises, Celebrity Cruises and many others around the world. Cesar also plays in University of Miami and FIU in the "Hispanic Heritage" anual festivals as a lead sonero of "Salsamore", his own band known as the best of all party bands at the high seas, this artist keeps expanding every day showing nothing else but pure talent to the audiences.
