Ricardo Arjona

Known as Latin America's Bob Dylan, Guatemalan singer and songwriter Ricardo Arjona, like his famous American counterpart, is known around the world for his socially conscious and heartfelt folk ballads and rock tunes. Playing in a variety of styles that combine traditional South American folk music with rock, hip-hop, and classical music, Arjona sings about subjects ranging from faded love to social inequities. The Latin sensation has won two Grammy Awards from three nominations including 2007 Best Latin Pop Album and 2006 Best Male Pop Vocal Album, both for his album Adentro (2005).
