Ruben Blades

Internationally acclaimed Panamanian singer-songwriter, actor and activist Rubén Blades brings his musical artistry to Miami this spring. The Fotografías Tour will take place at the Kaseya Center on Thursday, May 15, marking the first stop of his five-city U.S. tour.

The 24-time GRAMMY and LATIN GRAMMY Award winner will be accompanied by the Roberto Delgado Big Band, a talented ensemble of 20 Panamanian musicians who have collaborated with Blades since 2010. Together, they will present a curated repertoire featuring songs from his latest album Fotografías alongside Spanish music classics that have defined his career, including Pedro Navaja, Decisiones, and Amor y Control.

Fotografías continues Blades' creative partnership with Roberto Delgado and la Orquesta de Panama, showcasing the band's versatility across various musical formats including two trumpets, three trombones, orchestra and big band arrangements. The album features new compositions such as the title track Fotografías, Emigrantes and Hoy por ti, as well as songs written by Blades but previously recorded by other artists throughout his five-decade artistic journey.
