Bio

Beloved Los Angeles trio, Tres Souls has been capturing the hearts of Angelenos, one ballad at a time, (ABC7). For the last 13 years Rocio Mendoza, Roberto Carlos, and Jesus Martinez have serenaded audiences in LA and beyond, with their own interpretations of a genre called “Bolero.” They relive the vintage sounds and songs of the 1940s-1960s, stylized during the Golden Era of Mexican Cinema. “Through their expert musicianship and swooning vocals Tres Souls enchants audiences and transports them to a more romantic time.” (The Music Center)

Each member of the trio is an accomplished musician, and each inherited the knowledge and importance of Mexican heritage music through their family and generations before them. Jesus Martinez graduated from Berklee College of Music, Roberto Carlos has classical guitar training from Los Angeles City College and started performing professionally at the age of 15. Rocio Mendoza is a professional dancer and singer who received training from School of Performing Arts and Cultural Education in Ukiah, CA. In their own way Tres Souls are following in the footsteps of other “Trio Romanticos", like Eydie Gorme Y Los Panchos, Los Tres Reyes and Los Tres Ases, while interspersing musical influences that can be heard echoing throughout the diaspora of Los Angeles.

Tres Souls perform around the greater Los Angeles area and beyond. Their past performances include: Walt Disney Studios for the premier of 'Coco' the movie, The Music Center 59th and 61st Annual Holiday Celebration on PBS, and most recently a sold out show at THE FORD theater in Hollywood CA.
