AJ Castillo is a Latin artist known for his unique accordion sound and style, his energetic LIVE performances, and his extraordinary custom accordions. Having lent his musical talent to many artists through countless studio recordings and performances, in late 2008 he felt it was time to step to the front of the stage and introduced a fresh new sound that expands the boundaries of accordion music. From the release of his debut CD in 2009 to his CD in 2014 (Sin Límites) that debuted on Billboard at #15 on the Latin Pop Albums chart (07.26.2014) to his most recent release in 2016, AJ is becoming a well-known accordionist, singer, song writer, performer, and producer.

AJ is a native of Austin, TX, and is a graduate of The University of Texas at San Antonio. Born to a musical family, he was introduced to the accordion by his grandfather. He started playing the accordion at the age of 10 and began his professional music career at 13. Today, this young talented musician is reaching Latin music fans all over the world and is being recognized by professionals in the Latin music industry (as evidenced by his HOHNER, Inc. USA endorsement).

With the release of each consecutive project, AJ has taken his music to the next level and continues to amaze people with his ability to infuse different styles of music to create his new unique sound. Joining him on this journey is his younger brother and promising vocalist, Sergio Castillo. Sergio brings another level of versatility to the group with his strong vocal ability. Together, they are committed to producing high quality music that can cross boundaries and appeal to fans in all genres of Latin music.

After three decades, 38 albums and over 12 million copies sold, La Mafia is back with their new single "Que No Quede Huella / Como Me Duele Amor" Oscar de la Rosa and Armando Lichtenberger Jr., leaders of the Mafia, started promoting their new single "Que No Quede Huella / Como Me Duele Amor", with the participation of guest artist Bronco.

La Mafia’s returning to the studio could not be more spectacular than with this new single, which is an innovative project titled “Unicos” which has as a special guest Bronco. "Que No Quede Huella" is their most representative theme and one of the biggest successes of the Monterrey based group, but this time performed by La Mafia, in their unique style, while the hit "Como Me Duele Amor", one of La Mafia’s biggest hits now interpreted by Bronco, but in their own unique way. Definitely a great idea by La Mafia lead vocalist Oscar De La Rosa who’s idea gives a fresh take on two classics.
