MAURICIO CALLEJAS“Mauricio Callejas’ music is beauty personified, the colors, shapes and sounds he paints of his native home El Salvador transport you to a place you won’t soon want to leave. I am very honored to be part his record” -Stephen Doster, Producer.

Mauricio Callejas’ music is influenced by popular rhythms of his native El Salvador and the rest of Latin America with special emphasis in Central America music. His compositions are meaningful and touching, they are blended with rhythms that delight the audiences and invite them to discover. Cumbia, Latin Jazz, Parranda, Salsa, Calypso are just a few of the elements in the variety of his repertoire. http://mauriciocallejas.com/
