🌹✨💜#HTS ARTIST HIGHLIGHT: @rockypadilla 🔊 R&B and Latino Soul artist Rocky Padilla was born for music. The Los Angeles native picked up his first bass at 10-years-old to fill in as a sub for his father’s band. The practice paid off because Padilla learned six instruments and has carved out a 44-year music career he and his brother could only dream of. Having been in bands like Sugar Style, The Hispanic MC's, and Tierra, besides working with everyone from War to Joe Bataan to the Delfonics, Brenton Wood to Snoop Dogg to A Lighter Shade of Brown; it’s easy to understand why generations of fans call Padilla “an R&B Latin legend.” The bilingual balladeer also counts singer, producer, engineer, label head, and music director as his job titles. He’ll be bringing his unique background, influence, and talent to Hit The Switches when he hits the stage as a solo performer and performs with Industry Music Group, while also taking part in Mellow Man Ace’s backing band. Rocky will do what he loves the most and what he was seemingly born to; play music. #hellostranger #hellostrangerla #rockypadilla #randblatino #latinrandb #rnblatino #rnb #rnbmusic #rnbmusic #warband #delfonics #brentonwood #lightershadeofbrown #soul #festival #musicfestival #losangeles #happeninginla #dtla #westcoast #cali #lfl #l4l #lfl💛 #lfl❤️ #l4l❤️ #likexlike #likelike #liker #liketime (at Santa Anita Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CR5CAMxs25F/?utm_medium=tumblr
