Young Female Tejano Singer Fulfills Destiny
2008 came and went with several Tejano Artists fulfilling the commitment to fans to produce and release new music albums. This past fall of 2008 also fulfilled young female Tejano singer Kristie Villarreal's destiny to produce and release her first CD.
Born and raised in Port Lavaca, Texas, Kristie made her first start as most young Tejano talent do, in her local High School. It's 1996, Senior Day in Port Lavaca, Kristie sings "Un Million De Rosas" by the famous Tejano group La Mafia at a school gathering. The performance is a tribute song to a deceased classmate Rosa Benavides. I image there must have not been a dry eye in that gathering.
From that performance, life must have spun Kristie into where she is today, an up and coming Tejano Artist. Life's events have a strange and unpredictable way of exposing a person's talents and directing a person in the way they were meant to travel in life's journey.
That fate, later brought opportunity for Kristie, hooking up with Grammy Award winning producer Chris Dominguez. They co-wrote her first single "La Misma Mujer." The single quickly got rhe attention of Tejano radio stations in Texas, from Victoria to Lubbock and radio stations in between.
Kristie's destiny has come full circle with her first CD being released in Oct. 2008. I asked Kristie to give me an update on how well her CD and singles have been doing. Here is what she had to say.
"La Misma Mujer has charted up to number 3 on various radio stations in Texas since it's release in 2007 and is still going strong on the airwaves. No Quiero A Nadie and Hasta Al Fin charted up to number three on Countdown USA Nationwide Radio Show with Ben Gonzales recently. I recently discovered that I am charting in Mexico with Tejanisimo Extreme on various charts with four different singles. "La Misma Mujer" is number 6 under Cumbia chart in Nuevo Leon, No Quiero A Nadie is on the same chart at number 12. Under the Tejano style/Chicano chart I am currently number 16 with "Remordimento". I am charting at number 9 with Vuelve A Mi on the Ranchero/Conjunto chart. On Bnet Radio No Quiero ANadie it has reached number 12. These are the only charts I personally know of so far."
This success has launched her career to new highest, something the girl from Port Lavaca, Texas has always dreamed of. Kristie went on to say what is head for her in March.
"I will be performing at the Tejano Music Awards Fan Fair this year and signing autographs all three days. I am proud to say that I am getting recognition right along with all other big names in the Tejano Music Industry. It's an honor, not bad for a new girl on the block. I made it a point to invest the right amount of money to record a quality album. I wanted to make an impact with it even though it was my album. I have received phone calls from various figures in the Tejano Music Industry applauding my perseverance and the quality of the album. I have a lot of people rooting for me. Everyone knows it is very difficult for a female to break thru in this industry and to last. I want to be a household name for years to come and I will let nothing hold me back from following this dream and seeing it thru. This is still the very beginning for me. The first step is recording and letting people know who you are. I feel I have yet to be discovered by people I am destined to meet who can take me to the level of my fullest potential. I will be patient though because I know that God will send them my way soon. I have also made the top 12 in three different categories for the TTMA Music Awards this year. Best New Female Artist, Song Of The Year, Crossover Song Of The Year. We will see what the future hold and if I have what it takes to make the top 5 in any of these categories."
With hard work and a undying desire to fulfil her dream, Kristie is destined to make her mark in the Tejano Music Industry. Whatever the outcome at this year's Tejano Music Award, Kriste's talent and current CD have proven that she is Tejano's hot new Female Tejano Singer.
