Noel Schajris 2.0: The Latin Star on His 20th Anniversary & New Subscription Model Billboard 3 hrs ago Noel Schajris
The summer of 1997, Noel Schajris arrived in Mexico from Argentina with $600 in his pocket the proceeds from the sale of his upright piano. He had left behind his sick mother and a fledgling music career for the promise of stardom as the singer of a Mexican funk band. The group went nowhere, but Schajris signed as a solo artist with Sony Mexico and released his debut album,
Cita en las Nubes (
Date in the Clouds), in 1999. It marked the start of a career that has lasted two decades and seven solo albums, as well as five more as half of the Grammy Award-nominated duo Sin Bandera.
