Producer, singer-songwriter, uniquely talented and captivated by the music that has been a constant companion all his life. From his early childhood, JEAN was surrounded by the energy, passion and love of music that his parents proudly infused in his creative development. His father, a music collector with unlimited tastes, made sure an escape room existed in their home as refuge to retire and enjoy his precious treasures. From salsa to Latin jazz, his tastes were vast and visionary. His mom, a singer as well, was a key exponent in the success of the renowned Puerto Rican choir, VIVA LA GENTE. Frequently JEAN and his siblings performed the latest MENUDO tracks as the entire family proudly watched, including their trumpet-playing grandfather. JEANS interest for R&B started early. By 9, he constantly sang the riffs to Stevie Wonders songs while riding his bike around his newly found neighborhood in Orlando, Florida. There, his addiction to this genre, was strongly implanted; Boys ll Men, New Edition, Shai, Brian Mc Knight, Mint Condition, contributed to his expanding record collection opening another window for JEAN to explore other types of music; 2-Pac, Bob Marley, Nirvana, Queen, yet never forgetting his Latin roots. In school, JEAN was just as musically inclined and involved, as any true aspiring talent should be. From the choir, to the marching band where he played the trombone, to vocalizing, training and joining various accappella vocal groups, his harmonies and uniqueness, made him a recipient of immeasurable praise. Following his dream, JEAN moves to Los Angeles, California. By then he had already composed several songs that led to the obviousrecording some demos, knocking on doors, all leading him to the opportunity to perfect and develop his own style and record with some of the hottest producers in town. Two years later, confident his experience in the West coast had matured and developed his style, he moves to the Big Apple recognizing that his time in Los Angeles was well spent in defining once more, his dream. In New York, JEAN searches further as he soaks in the different cultures, their music and their customs. He performs at local clubs such as the Cutting Room, Village Underground and Joes Pub among others before deciding that MIAMI would his next stepping-stone. There, he connects with his Latin roots and focuses on complementing his songwriting by singing and composing Spanish tracks. He has the opportunity to write the soundtrack, including the theme song for YU-GI-Oh, and proceeds to write hit songs for Olga Ta~non and Luis Fonsi among others. His dream becomes a reality; JEAN is signed by SONY and proudly delivers ON, his first production under SONY/BMG URBAN Music Entertainment. JEAN is heading in the right directionb head ON to conquer the world!
