Amaury Riveras

Amaury Riveras was born in La Habana, Cuba and began his professional music career with the release of his debut album 'Amaury' in 1989. That album established him as a presence in Latin music, though it was a song nearly a decade later that would become his most recognized work.

In 1998, Riveras released 'Miss You (Te Extraño),' a ballad about longing and heartbreak that connected with listeners across language barriers. The song's straightforward melody and emotional delivery made it a staple on Latin radio and in the collections of fans who appreciated its direct approach to romantic themes.

Riveras has worked with other artists in the Latin pop field, including Ricardo Montaner and Franco De Vita. His music tends to stay within the familiar territory of romantic ballads, built around his voice and simple arrangements that foreground the sentiment in the lyrics.
