The popular Dominican singer, songwriter and producer Juan Luis Guerra, one of the living legends of Latin music, has just given a big boost to the latest albums from Puerto Rican artist Draco Rosa and Grammy Award-winning singer Natalie Cole.

On the one hand, Juan Luis Guerra and Draco Rosa recorded the video of the single "Esto Es Vida," one the top tracks included in Draco Rosa's latest album Vida. The two artists met in the Dominican Republic and recorded the video at the suggestive Engombe Sugar Mill, a historic 16th-century site on the outskirts of Santo Domingo.

On the other hand, Natalie Cole has debuted "Bachata Rosa," one of the top duets from her upcoming album Natalie Cole en Español, on different radio stations across the country. Natalie Cole recorded this romantic duet alongside Juan Luis Guerra, the author of that legendary Bachata track. Natalie Cole en Español will be released next week on June 25.

Today, Latin music superstar Ricky Martin is releasing "Come With Me," his first new single in two years. In the making of this exhilarating new song, which is heavily influenced by Dance music, the famous Latin Pop superstar joined forces with the acclaimed Aussie production duo DNA (Anthony Egizii and David Musumeci). The new single is the first track released from Ricky Martin's upcoming tenth studio album due later this year.

Ricky Martin recorded the new single in the studios of Sony Entertainment in Sydney, Australia. During the last four months, the popular bilingual artist has been based in that country working as one of the judges of The Voice Australia, the #1 rated television show in the country. After its early release on Australian radio stations, "Come With Me" has already become a huge hit in that country.

With its intoxicating beats, I am sure "Come With Me" will be one of the most popular songs in the near future. If you are into mainstream music, you are going to love it. This is the first original work from Ricky Martin since the release of his acclaimed album Musica + Alma + Sexo. Stay tuned for more news regarding this single and the upcoming album from one of the most popular artists in the Latin music industry.

Early this year, DEWAR'S Blended Scotch whisky and Colombian superstar Juanes joined forces to promote this special event, which will provide the lucky winning band with the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to open for Juanes in September 2013 at the Dewaristas private event in Miami, Florida.

This exciting search includes live performance events in New York, Miami and San Antonio. A panel of judges led by the Rock and Latin Pop singer Juanes will judge the live performances by the top 3 bands at each regional showcase.
