Biography
Miami, United States (1975 – present)
Beginning her career in 1975 as lead vocalist for the then exclusively Spanish-language band, Miami Sound Machine, before crossing over to mainstream pop success with the international hit singles “Dr. Beat” (1984) and “Conga” (1986), Estefan emerged as one of the biggest new stars in the mid-’80s, predating the still nascent Latin pop explosion by a decade, and scoring a series of propulsive dance hits rooted in the rhythms of her native Cuba, before shifting her focus to softer, more ballad-oriented fare.
Born in Havana, Cuba, the young Gloria Fajardo was raised primarily in Miami, FL, after her father, a bodyguard of Cuban president Fulgencio Batista, was forced to flee the island following the 1959 coup helmed by Fidel Castro. In the fall of 1975, Fajardo and her cousin Merci Murciano auditioned for the Miami Latin Boys, a local wedding band headed by keyboardist Emilio Estefan.

too bad we can't combine gloria estefan, gloria estefan & miami sound machine, and miami sound machine. anyway, i've always been a fan of her litefm soft rock songs. nothing groundbreaking, just harmless, likeable soft pop. kinda wish she had a current artist equivalent but her catalog will have to do.
