(Press Play & Hear What Everyone is Talking About)
Four talented men, whom were born and raised in Washington Heights, New York, form the Group Bachata Heightz. In order to stay out of the streets and all its negativity, in the year 2000, these four young men united and began to explore their musical passion. Bachata Heightz became pioneers in what is now known as the "urban look or style" in the genre of bachata. Their influences, in creating this mass appeal style, have included hip-hop, R&B, and rock; as well as their surroundings. The streets of New York and the influences of their Tropical Latin upbringing, all add to the gritty, tropical, and soulful sound that is known as BACHATA HEIGHTZ.
The group is composed of four family members who are, Jerry Garcia “Jay Heightz” (lead singer/composer), Jonathan Garcia “Phenomenon” (lead guitar), Diego Capellan “Dee Major” (bass guitar), and Aneudy Hernandez “Chino” (chorus). Utilizing viral technology, the group has spread their sounds all over the world including United States, Central America and Europe.
Reviews
“Music involves commitment, passion and marketing, and the members of the band Bachata Heightz credit the unofficial “Spanglish” language for helping promote their sounds internationally.”
“Bachata Heightz added R&B trappings to its bachatas: lovelorn songs backed by thumb-plucked guitar syncopations in what was originally a Dominican rural style. Its songs began with sustained keyboard chords, mimicking R&B ballads, before the guitars took over. The backup singers had synchronized dance routines, while the high-voiced lead singer, Jerry García, used some of the unctuous inflections of Justin Timberlake. It was still a patchwork, not a fusion.”
“The big guns: the DJ is playing “Me Puedo Matar” by Bachata Heightz. That’s what’s up. She is very serious about this. Our school is almost exclusively Latino, so this is pretty much the smartest move ever. 13-year-old girls LOVE Bachata Heightz.”
