Description
Jiory Garcia born in the Dominican Republic lived his childhood in San Pedro de Macoris, a province rich in culture and where Caribbean music is part of their daily lives. It is here where his fondness and inclination for popular rhythms began. From an early age, a huge influence in his life was his mother who would sing in church, and one of his brothers who is a composer and singer of popular music. As a teenager he emigrated with his family to New York, this is where he would take his first steps as a professional singer and composer.
Jiory’s admiration for Bachata artists from the ’80s and ’90s like Antony Santos, Juan Luis Guerra, Aventura, and his passion for Bachata, led him to form with 2 friends the Bachata band “Grupo 24 horas“. The band made the Billboard charts with several number 1 hits. They achieved great acceptance from the public recognizing them as singers and composers. With these successes, they were able to tour large stages in many cities both nationally and internationally, including New York City’s Madison Square Garden, and performed on popular US television shows such as Sabado Gigante, Despierta America, and many others.
In 2018, Jiory under the musical direction of Mutante Music (Joselito "El Mutante") decided to launch his album “Money, Sex & Love”. It included unreleased songs written with the collaboration of his older brother Eliseo Severino, Jay Tejada, NJC and other adaptations. From this album, the song “Eso es Amor” was the first hit that was popular in the United States, Latin America, and Europe. His second hit, “Ya No Sirvo Sin Ti”, released as a single on January 1st, 2020 showcases Jiory’s variety of lyrics and rhythms.
