Jon Secada, one of the most gifted artists of our time, is not only blessed with a soulful voice, but also with an artistry to create, write and produce music. Born in Havana, Cuba, Secada arrived in the United States at the age of nine. He later enrolled at the University of Miami where he developed his considerable skills as a songwriter. In the late 1980's he joined Gloria Estefan as a background singer and co-wrote "Coming Out of the Dark," Gloria's number one hit from her 1991 album "Into the Light." His self-titled solo debut (released 1992) sold six million plus copies worldwide and was certified triple platinum in the U.S., where it reached No. 15 among Billboard Pop albums. He followed with the Gold single "Just Another Day," and three more top 30 hits, "Angel," "I'm Free," and "Do You Believe in Us?" "Otro Dia Mas Sin Verte" (Spanish-language version of the album), became the Number One Latin album of 1992 earning Jon his first Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album. His third album, "Amor," (released 1995) brought his second Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Performance and in 2006, Jon was once again honored when "Songs From The Neighborhood: The Music of Mister Rogers," featuring twelve of today's top artists including Jon, won the Grammy for the "Best Musical Album For Children."
