About the Author
Andrés Salguero grew up in Bogotá,
Colombia, and learned how to play the guitar from his father at an early
age. He had his first studio experience at age eight, and from there he
went on to earn a Doctorate in music and won the National Composition
Contest in Colombia for one of his early songs. Since then, Andrés and
his partner Christina — together, 123 Andrés — won the Latin Grammy
for Best Children's Album in 2016, the Parent's Choice Gold Award, and a
Notable Children's Recording by the American Library Association. Their
Latin Grammy nominated debut album,
¡Uno, Dos, Tres Andrés en español y en inglés!, was hailed by the
Boston Globe: "Joyous new album...hopscotches around the
Spanish-speaking world, seamlessly switching from bachata and bolero to
mariachi and vallenato."
