Radio Mundial

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.1



A Brooklyn based quintet fronted by the dynamic Puerto Rican/Peruvian brothers' Jean & Richard Shepherd, along with percussionist Jon "Gianni Mano" Uman, Radio Mundial melds the rhythm of the Latin-world with the streets and beats of Brooklyn producing a new harmony.



After 2 successful European Tours in 04 and 05 Radio Mundial returned to the States and began work on their new album with Grammy-nominated producer Andres Levin of Yerba Buena. The result, Momento Eterno, represents everything good about contemporary Latin Music coming out of America. Fresh, energetic and revolutionary, Radio Mundials new album speaks to the ever growing population of Latinos growing up here in the US.



Radio Mundial recently lived out a dream in Atlantic City, in front of a sold out crowd where they shared the stage with Latin-Rock legend Carlos Santana to perform their hit song La Raiz. The great Santana has been covering the band's song in concert for over a year & has released it, retitled "El Fuego", on his new album, All That I Am.



Radio Mundial are world renowned for their high-energy live performances and on-stage charisma that ignites dancing like lighting does wild fire. They have played to packed houses across the world from The Troubador in LA, to WOMAD in Reading, England, to SOBs New York, Roskilde in Denmark, to the Black Cat in Washington DC, to Caliente in Zurich, Switzerland.



"Hot, sticky, & soulful, Radio Mundial are the sonic equivalent of a New York City summer night & the only music you need at your block party."
