Neon Venus the band
NEON VENUS BIOGRAPHY
Neon Venus creates a mix of original, dance/rock music with Anglo and Latin sounds and rhythms.
In 2009, Neon Venus opened the ‘Neon Venus Art Theatre’ in Hollywood, as a home in Los Angeles for their music and shows, and as an outlet of artistic expression for fellow artists. The first 'Neon Venus Art Theatre' was opened in Las Vegas in 2008. In 2010 the band is rockin out at both venues.
- In 2007, two songs from their latest CD “Irresistible” were pre-nominated for the 49th Annual Grammys in two categories: “Best Record of the Year” and “Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal”.
- In 2006, MTV Español (USA) aired Neon Venus’ latest video for their song “Irresistible”.
- Three other Neon Venus music videos (Beso a Beso, Step Into My Island, and Volveremos) have aired on MTV Español, VHUno (Latin VH1- USA) and/or MTV Puerto Rico. “Beso a Beso” first aired on MTV Español in 2003.
- In 2005, MTV Español aired Neon Venus’ self-directed rockumentary based on their tour of Europe, which included cities in Spain, Italy, Turkey, Egypt and the Sinai.
- Many tracks from their records have received college and internet airplay in the US, as well as on commercial stations and shows like Rodney on the Rock, on KROQ 106.7 FM in Los Angeles.
- Neon Venus song "Beso a Beso' was included in a CD compilation to benefit tsunami victims, and we have been part of many compilations for Latin rock magazine “Boom!”.
