Biography
A heartfelt lyrist whose smartly crafted pop tales have become a constant presence on the Latin Music charts, Obie Bermúdez returns with the August 29th release of his fourth album, Lo Que Trajo El Barco (What The Ship Has Brought In). The album represents the eagerly awaited follow-up to Bermudez’ Latin GRAMMY winning album Todo El Año which further established the young artist as a leader among Latin Music’s new generation of singer-songwriters by garnering three nominations and taking home the award for Best Male Pop Vocal Album.
Born in the mountain town of Aibonito, Puerto Rico and named after his uncle, Obie’s family moved to the farmlands of Vineland, New Jersey just before his teens. Music actually wasn’t his first passion — it was poetry. He learned guitar from his father, a big Beatles fan, while also being influenced by his mother’s lively salsa sounds. Soon, he brought his two loves of words and music together, recording a demo in 1996 that led to an international label deal and the release of his debut album Locales two years later.
Though he received some acclaim, that first album didn’t make him an overnight star; Obie chose to step back from his career and took a job at a New York Laundromat in the South Bronx, where his life and that of customers and co-workers inspired the songs that would fill his second album, Confesiones, released by EMI International in 2004. The album’s lead single “Antes” topped Latin charts worldwide and lead to Confesiones receiving multiple Latin GRAMMY nominations.
