-With The Best-Selling Latin Album Of 2009, The Kings of Bachata Will Be Performing At Arenas Across The Country – Tickets To Go On Sale September 12
AVENTURA’s New Album The Last Is Currently #1 On Billboard’s “Top Latin Albums” Chart And Is The Only Album In The Last Three Years To Hold The Top Spot For 10 Consecutive Weeks
The Bronx-based Kings of Bachata AVENTURA are without question the Latin music success story of the year. Although not released until late June, their critically-praised new album The Last is already the best-selling Latin music album of 2009. Already producing two #1 singles, and with a third track now likewise rising on the charts, The Last debuted at #1 on both Billboard’s “Top Latin Albums” chart and the iTunes Latino chart. Now, as summer comes to a close, The Last is still holding strong atop both those charts. In fact, AVENTURA’s already double-platinum certified album has now notched TEN consecutive weeks at #1 on the “Top Latin Albums” chart – the first Latin album in three years to accomplish a #1 chart run of such duration.
Now, to celebrate the success of The Last with fans, AVENTURA are embarking on an impressive tour of prominent arenas across the country. With Tickets for all shows set to go on sale on September 12th, AVENTURA is now announcing the following concert dates:

“Aventura has helped make bachata’s romantic tidings and spiky guitar syncopations a staple of Latin radio; Aventura’s suave, sweet-voiced singer — best known by his nickname, Romeo — is a major star and heartthrob… What is the definitive 21st-century New York musical act?— the answer [is] likely Aventura, whose blend of bachata with R&B, hip-hop and big-city attitude has created a swaggering, distinctly New York style… The result is a juggernaut. Over the last decade Aventura has racked up millions of record sales and established a near-permanent perch in the upper reaches of Billboard’s Latin charts… New York’s headiest hybridizers a Dominican-American band last seen headlining Madison Square Garden.”–New York Times
“The Bronx’s Latin Chart-Toppers : Aventura is riding high: Their disk, “The Last” is already this year’s best-selling Latin album, though it was only released in early June… it’s time for Aventura to cross over to the mainstream in the U.S., their home country. With affecting songs written by Romeo Santos and Henry Santos Jeter, and silky lead vocals backed with feathery harmonies over percolating rhythms, their multicultural form of bachata—which originated in the Dominican Republic as a folky, romantic descendent of the bolero—may find that broader audience…. In a sense, they’ve already crossed over… the band played before a capacity crowd at the Garden, their hometown arena. But they’ve sold out arenas in other markets too—five shows at the José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in San Juan, Puerto Rico, for example, where the tickets were snapped up in a few hours.. They’ve a confidence born out of dedication & clear vision.”- The Wall Street Journal –
