Biography
One of the longest-running salsa groups in recent history, the Lebron Brothers began their musical journey in the late 1960s. Born in Puerto Rico but raised in the NY borough of Brooklyn, siblings José, Ãngel, Carlos, and Frankie Lebron, plus their half-brother Pablo López, took their first steps in music inspired by the rising popularity of boogaloo, a genre that combined Latin rhythms with English lyrics. Even though their repertoire consisted mainly of cover versions at the beginning, the band began writing their own songs after a successful audition with Cotique Records in 1967. Psychedelic Goes Latin, their studio debut, appeared later that year and became a huge success within New York City's burgeoning salsa scene. In the following years, the Lebron Brothers carved their own niche with their soul-inflected Latin grooves, delivering a total of 16 albums for the Cotique label. In 1988, they scored one of the biggest hits of their career with the single "Qué Pena," included in their album Loco Por Ti. The group continued to record and perform well into the 21st century, scoring hits like "Si Me Permite," "Culebra," "No Me Celes," and "Complicado." Pablo López, one of the band's main songwriters, died in 2010, followed by Frankie Lebron, who passed away due to diabetes-related complications in 2020.
