Locos Por Juana is a Grammy and Latin Grammy nominated bilingual band formed in Miami, FL, in 2000 that blows away audiences with what the Miami Herald calls “eareld calls the beloved master of “the Latin-Reggae-Hip-Hop mashup” .  The band rocks stages with electrifying dynamism, collaborations with stars of Latin music and hip hop and reggae, high energy dance numbers,  and a unique music style. The current line-up consists of vocalist Itagüí Correa, guitarist Mark Kondrat, and drummer Javier Delgado, who form the core of the group, along with trombonist Lasim Richards and percussionist Carlos Palmet. The band released its first two albums,  Locos Por Juana in 2003  and Música pal Pueblo in 2005, on the indie label Musical Productions (MP) Records. In 2003 they were nominated for a Premio Lo Nuestro and in 2005 for a Latin Grammy.  In 2007, Locos por Juana signed with Universal Música and released La Verdad, nominated for a Grammy. In 2010, Locos por Juana returned with a new EP, Evolución, nominated for The Shock Awards in the Best Alternative Album category in Bogatá. Their next album "Somos de La Calle" will be released in the fall and the single "Se Fue La Luz" is available now on Billboard.com. Music Friday Live is moving to Mexico in July and will  disassemble the studio for moving next week. This Friday is our last week on the air before we move to Mexico.
