Deeper than music interviews actor, singer Robert Avellanet.
About Robert Avellanet:
Robert Avellanet, also known as RoBA, is the nephew of well known Puerto Rican bolero and ballad singer Chucho Avellanet. Inspired by his uncle's success across Latin America, Robert wanted to be a singer since childhood. Avellanet himself became a teen idol in Puerto Rico and across Latin America after being hired in 1988 as a member of the international pop sensation MENUDO. He joined the group during the era popularly known as Menudo's Rock era. His debut came when Menudo recorded Sombras & Figuras, the title of an album that produced major hits for the group. Then came Los Ultimos Heroes, which was released in Portuguese as Os Ultimos Heroes, and No Me Corten El Pelo. During his tenure at Menudo, Robert shared the stage with Ricky Martin, Sergio Blass, Ruben Gomez, Angelo Garcia, and Rawy Torres, among others.
Almost immediately after becoming a former Menudo, Robert and ex-bandmate and personal friend Rawy Torres formed a group named Euphoria during the early 1990s and recorded two albums. In 1994 Avellanet went to college in Puerto Rico to study Advertising. In 1996 well known tropical music producer and business executive, Ralph Mercado, signed Robert to record a Salsa album under the RMM label. The album Sentir (1999), produced by master Isidro Infante, had great success in several Latin American countries, and most of all in New York and his native island of Puerto Rico. Having interpreted such genre expanded his musical knowledge and allowed him to share the stage with legends such as Tito Puente and Celia Cruz.
Searching for new horizons, in 2002 Robert moved to Miami, Florida with an idea of finding new opportunities to expand him as an artist and started writing & producing new music as RoBA. Throughout the years in Miami, Avellanet was active in the acting world as well. He worked on the independent film "Tony Tango" and has worked in several Latin soap operas for networks such as Univision, Venevision, and Telemundo. Avellanet has also been in several theatrical plays, including two musicals; Among those are The Sleeping Beauty Quien Mató a Hector Lavoe, Descarados, and Cuatro XXXX.
In 2003 Avellanet and his former Menudo bandmates (Sergio, Ruben, Angelo, and Rawy) were inspired to make a reunion tour named Los Ultimos Heroes. It had great success in some Latin American countries.
His true passion, motivation, and love for music made him complete, in 2009, Jet Privado, his first production as a co-producer and writer of all songs. Among those are great tunes like Jet Privado, Laberinto, No Te Arrepientas, and Miserable. Jet Privado, also produced and written by Frank Santofimio and Andrés Saavedra, included collaborations from Juan Carlos Pérez Soto, Yhonny Rivero, Ricky Ragnar, and Jodi Marr.

This interview we have special guest Nashville powerhouse rebel Phenix Red.
About Phenix Red:
Nashville’s powerhouse rebel Phenix Red gives pop music it’s “Girl on Fire”. With multiple EPs, a dozen singles, and over a dozen music videos, Phenix Red is a visionary to be reckoned with in 2020. A truly compelling artist whose visuals compliment her thought-provoking sound and avant-garde sense of style, Phenix combines all the elements.
Phenix was born and raised in a small town in rural Wisconsin. From cornfields to couture, from rodeos to living in the city, Phenix has never felt a need to apologize for her self expression. She would milk cows and work on the farm to pay for recording her demos in highschool. Always sporting a love for dark eyeliner and androgyny, Phenix has been evolving her “goth pop” look as a staple of her brand.
Shortly after graduating highschool Phenix moved to Nashville. Within the first year of moving she recorded an album, of which she never released. Phenix continued to dial in on her sound and let it grow. She began merging her childhood inspirations of Avril Lavigne and Evanescence with her deep love for great MC’s and hip-hop angst. Phenix has been building her brand and sound independently for the last 4 years.
After moving to Nashville, Phenix Red got her Recording engineering degree at Nashville State. She currently co-owns and operates her own studio on historic Printers Alley. She has collaborated with National/Worldwide acts Jadakiss, Romeo Miller, Jim Jones (dipset), Cassidy. One of her latest and biggest collaborations has been with Warner Music Russia artist “Andy Darling”. The two feisty and culture bending artists have written over 60 records together. They recently released their first bi-lingual track “Ratatata” which you can listen to here and see the stunning visual: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ix6vIoR6D-E More collaborations are planned for this year.
Phenix is an active #LYMEWARRIOR and mental/spiritual health activist after being diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2018, Phenix Red went through a health battle that she now uses as inspiration in her music.
Phenix is also an ambassador to the international non-profit “Free For Life” that works in the rescue, rehabilitation, and restoration of sex trafficking victims across the globe. Curating special performances for their fundraising efforts and helping to spread awareness to the cause. In line with the empowering message in her music, she makes a point to be a voice for the voiceless.
Her latest releases include a self directed visual album series of music videos supporting her album “The Chariot” released last year. “The Chariot” visual album is a semi-conceptual mini story of triumph, perseverance, and personal truth. Phenix Red wrote and directed the theatrical interpretations of her music giving insight into the world she has just begun creating. The collection is made up of a total of 4 music videos and set the runway for her new single “Bad News” released on March 27th. Phenix followed up her single release with an on brand music video full of new styles and new characters that she says mark the beginning of her “Raggedy Ann” era. Her next single is set to release on April 24th.

This episode we interview DFW native musical artist La Bell.
About La Bell:
For North Texas' La Bell, boxing her into a particular genre would prove difficult. Her voice is sultry, effortless and effective. Give her less than two minutes in a crowded room with her guitar in hand, and you'll see why. Whether it's singing covers from rock groups like Radiohead or smooth grooves from the likes of Erykah Badu or Roberta Flack, her performances are sure to leave a lingering impression. In 2019, her song "Sunday Evening" made its debut on the soundtrack of the award winning original series, "Washed" which you can watch on Amazon Prime, TVOne (Digital) and other streaming platforms.
She is currently in the process or finishing her next project, which is slated for release in 2020.
