Tres Souls

July 20 & 21

West Gates at Tom Bradley International Terminal

The beloved Los Angeles trio, Tres Souls has been capturing the hearts of Angelenos, one ballad at a time (ABC7).  For the last decade Rocio Mendoza, Roberto Carlos, and Jesus Martinez have serenaded audiences in Los Angeles and beyond, with their own interpretations of the bolero genre, which originated in Cuba and later flourished in Mexico. They revive the vintage sounds and songs of the 1940s-1960s, stylized during the Golden Era of Mexican Cinema. Through their expert musicianship and swooning vocals, Tres Souls enchants audiences and transports them to a more romantic time (The Music Center).

Each member of the trio is an accomplished musician, and each inherited the knowledge and importance of Mexican heritage music through their family and generations before them. Jesus Martinez attended Berkley School of Music, while Roberto Carlos has classical guitar training from Los Angeles City College and continues to refine his craft through vocal and theory classes with master musicians.  Rocio Mendoza is a professional dancer and singer who received training from SPACE arts center in Ukiah, CA.   In their own way Tres Souls are following in the footsteps of other “Trio Romanticos," like Eydie Gorme Y Los Panchos, Los Tres Reyes and Los Tres Ases, while interspersing musical influences that can be heard echoing throughout the diaspora of Los Angeles.
