Los Amigos Invisibles win Latin GrammyVenezuelan artists were lauded, applauded and showered with victory on Thursday night at the 10th Latin Grammy Awards at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas.
First, Jose Antonio Abreu, the man who started the youth orchestra system picked up a Grammy for his work with shanty town and underprivileged kids.
Then, Los Amigos Invisibles picked up the gong for "Best Alternative Music Album" for their latest Cd "Comercial" - beating the other artists in the category, Babasonicos, with the album “Mucho”, Kinky with “Barracuda”, Novalima with “Coba Coba” and Zoé with “Reptiletric”.
The first single from the album,
"Mentiras", has been a massive hit for the band across Latin America and the USA.
Los Amigos were still walking the green carpet when their award was presented. “We thought they would give it to another band,” a band member joked backstage.
"Comercial" was produced by Cachorro Lopez and Dimitri from Paris and features guest vocals by Natalia lafourcade. It was recorded in New York studio The Magic Shop and mastered at Stearling studios.
This is the Venezuelan band's first Latin Grammy and will bring their work to a much wider audience.
