Biography
Born in San José de las Matas, Dominican Republic on September 6, 1963, merengue and bachata singer and guitarist Alex Bueno is one of the most respected vocalists in Latin America. Moving to Santo Domingo when still a teenager, he began his career in 1979 as a member of Gerardo Veraâs All-Stars. Alex Bueno formed his own tropical act, Alex Buena Y Orquesta Liberación. By the early 1990s, he had gone solo and released albums such as his 1990 self-titled album and ¡Como Nadie! (1991) before releasing the record-breaking Temuras (1992), his most successful release yet. Moving his focus to bachata music for the album Bachata A Su Tiempo (1998), the release proved to be yet another great success and took bachata music to an international audience. His next album of bachata music, Corazón Duro (2000), was even more successful and featured the hit single âQue Vuelva.â He continued to release more albums that would focus on romantic or merengue music but was drawn back to bachata and released the album Pideme in 2002. However, the pressures of achieving success at such a young age led him to drug and alcohol abuse and his career came to a halt. He spent many years overcoming his addiction and, with the encouragement of his fans, he began rebuilding his career and hopes to be more successful than before. His comeback gathered pace in the mid-2000s, with 20 Años Después earning a 2004 Latin Grammy nomination for Best Merengue Album. Alex Bueno continued to move between bachata, merengue, salsa, bolero, and romantic ballad on later releases including Queda Algo (2007), Mensajes (2008), and Bachatas en Ternura (2009), gradually restoring his place among the Dominican Republicâs most admired popular singers. In 2019, he received a Soberano al Mérito for his career, and in 2020 Romeo Santos introduced his voice to a younger audience through the duet âNuestro Amor.â Alex Bueno celebrated more than 40 years in music with anniversary concerts, while El Más Completo (2025) earned him another Latin Grammy nomination. Diagnosed with cancer that same year, Alex Bueno died in New York on June 18, 2026, aged 62.
