Mexico's Marco Antonio Solis and Ana Gabriel in Los Angeles - August & October

May 17, 2011 - International superstars Marco Antonio Solis and Ana Gabriel have announced that they will headline their first ever tour together this summer.  The multi-city Haciendo Historia (Making history) tour is a matchup of two of Mexico’s most respected and successful performers/songwriters. The Live Nation-produced tour kicks off on June 10th in Sacramento and continues in full force through August and September. 

With more than 300 songs, 20 recordings and 30 years of ever increasing success to his credit, 2011 is a watershed year of new and innovative projects for Marco Antonio. Last year he received a Star on the prestigious Hollywood Walk of Fame, where he joins seventy Latinos who have been honored in the same place.  His newest album En Total Plenitud, released last October, has been a huge success.  The album features 10 tracks written by Solis.  The first single from the album, “A donde vamos a parar,” was chosen as the main musical theme to “Teresa,” one of Televisa’s newest and most successful telenovelas.  For additional information, visit www.marcoantoniosolis.com.mx
