When you think of artists from Colombia, who comes to mind? Juanes, Shakira, Aterciopelados perhaps? Colombia is a country known for its talented musicians who always break into the mainstream masses and transition into becoming superstars in the United States.
Such is the case with rock band Don Tetto that has been captivating audiences with their tunes since 2003. Diego Pulecio, Carlos León Gomez, Jaime Valderrama & Jaime Medina have been busy promoting their latest CD Mienteme-Prometeme (Lie To Me-Promise Me) which earned them a nomination for the “Premios Texas 2011” for New Artist. The award show will take place on August 11th at the Long Center For The Performing Arts in Austin (Texas).
Mienteme-Prometeme (Lie To Me-Promise Me) can be found on itunes. Don Tetto is also one of the bands featured on the video game Rock Band and they are slowly but surely building a strong fan base in the United States.

I had the pleasure of scoring an interview with Diego Pulecio (lead singer) where we talked about the band; how they come up with the name Don Tetto and how important it is for the guys to connect with their fans via twitter (they are the ones who respond to each tweet, not some assistant.)
Check out my interview with Diego below (for my Spanish speaker followers) and don’t forget to buy their album on itunes and follow them on twitter.
