Carín León has signed with WME’s Global Co-Head of Music Kirk M. Sommer for representation in all areas.
Hailing from Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico, León started his musical journey at the age of 15. His 2018 debut album Desvelada con Banda y Mariachi took over the Regional Mexican music scene. In 2021, Inédito debuted on the top of multiple charts and was named one of Billboard’s “25 Best Latin Albums of the Year.” León has received an ASCAP Award, numerous Premios Lo Nuestro Awards, Latin GRAMMY and GRAMMY wins and more.
He was also the first Latin artist ever to play Coachella and Stagecoach in the same year, and is the first Latin artist to play The Sphere, with a run of seven appearances set for next year. Earlier this year, he set a record at RODEOHOUSTON with over 70,000 fans in attendance.
“We are thrilled to join the WME team led by Kirk Sommer,” says León’s manager Jorge Juarez. “Carín has tremendous potential to expand into other global territories. We are looking to WME to lead the way in all areas of their expertise.”
“Carín is a generational artist,” adds Sommer. “In his incredible career, he has consistently broken barriers and transcended genres. We are determined to bring the full weight of WME to bear to expand Carín’s fanbase around the world and we are honored to work with both Carín and Jorge.”
