Not your typical salsa or Latin rock band, MILAGRO is sophisticated and warm, yet at times, edgy and sensual with songs in both Spanish and English, sexy originals and traditional covers that focus on romance, melody and harmony.
Something about MILAGRO - Original & Traditional Latin Sounds from the Americas- cool Latin Jazz combines "Miles Davis sounds" in the form of Rich Armstrong on Trumpet and meets Tito Puente with a dash of Pete Escovedo. Then imagine the new Shakira meets Gloria Estefan's romantic period with a dash of Alannis Morrisette! Carmen Milagro and her band MILAGRO have begun to get noticed in the Bay Area music scene with television appearances on the Comcast SF Sound cable show the Bruce Lattimer Show on Pacificas local access Channel 8 as well as Bay Area Vista on KRONTV and an upcoming appearance on Univisions Channel 14 Encuentro en la Bahia.

Born in the San Francisco Mission District little did she know in the year 2000 what miracles would occur when she took the name of her favorite cousin as her own. Carmen Milagro the fearless leader of MILAGRO the Hottest Latin Sounds in the Bay Area has been quite diligent in creating performances that are extremely pleasing to the musical palate with songs in both Spanish and English sexy originals and traditional covers that focus on melody and harmony that stir emotions and inspire you to dance or sing.

Her sensuous vocals have attracted some incredibly talented high-caliber musicians. I believe this miracle called MILAGRO comes from not only having a band of exceptionally talented musicians with a similar vision but perhaps more importantly working with and trusting in these beautiful handsome human beings. I am fortunate to call them my friends and family. We just take care of each other. All you need to know as an audience about MILAGRO is that they are quite simply THE BEST IN THE WORLD! says the singer.

This San Francisco-native Latina singer and lyricist is coming into her own as a bandleader. Shes created a show that is both familiar to those in the Spanish-speaking communities as well as any lover of the traditional romantic Latin sounds and those who are interested in listening to the various other flavors of Latin music. The MILAGRO performances are not those of your typical Salsa or Latin rock bands. Instead Ms. Milagro has invoked a musical style that is sophisticated and warm yet at times edgy and sensual.
