Jesse & Joy can breathe easier…

The Mexican Latin Grammy-winning pop duo, comprised of siblings Jesse Huerta and Joy Huerta, have released their latest single “Respirar” via Warner Music Latina.

Jesse & JoyJesse & Joy’s powerful ballad that is part of what will be the duo’s forthcoming album.

A story of love, forgiveness, and resilience is delivered by Joy’s sweet vocals and Jesse’s stellar production (guided by Federico Vindver).

The piano melodies alongside the lyrics take listeners through a relationship’s ups and downs, and the ultimate decision to let go.

“I want to stop fighting, get out of this darkness, and remedy what we did, what we told each other, to breathe again,” Joy sings emotionally.

Mana Releases Revamped Version of “Eres Mi Religion” Featuring Jesse & Joy’s Joy Huerta

Mana is bringing a little Joy to one of its hit singles…

The legendary Mexican rock band has joined voices with Joy Huerta of Latin Grammy-winning Mexican duo Jesse & Joy for a revamped version of “Eres Mi Religion,” nearly 19 years after its original release.

Mana & Joy Huerta

“My loves, Maná invited me to be part of this song and it was impossible for me to resist,” Joy expressed on Instagram.

“Eres Mi Religion” is a timeless love anthem about finding your soul mate and being devoted to them.

Conserving the original’s essence, the 2021 version of “Eres Mi Religion” is still a romantic rock song. What’s different is its gospel-like intro and more instrumentation, likes the cajón. Notable is Joy’s powerhouse vocal throughout the track, beautifully harmonizing with Fher Olvera.

On the Billboard charts, the track peaked at No. 17 on Hot Latin Songs chart dated January 4, 2003, and at No. 10 on the Latin Pop Airplay chart dated January 4, 2003, earning the Mexican rock group its 10th top 10 at the time (the group has a total of 26).

It’s the latest re-do for Mana.

For two years now, the band has been sporadically releasing new versions of some of their biggest hits. In 2019, they released “Rayando el Sol” featuring Spanish crooner Pablo Alborán and “No Ha Parado de Llover” in collaboration with Sebastian Yatra.

The Latin Grammy-winning Mexican duo, comprised of Jesse Huerta and his sister Joy Huerta, have joined the star-studded roster for the tribute concert for the late Juan GabrielEternamente Juan Gabriel, taking place on February 18.

Jesse & Joy

In addition to Jesse & Joy, the lineup includes Juanes, David BisbalPepe Aguilar, Natalia Laforurcade and Luis Fonsi.

The official event poster with the artists performing at Foro Pegaso in the State of Mexico has been shared over social media.

Other confirmed singers include Yuri, EmmanuelIndia, Shaila Dúrcal, Yuridia, Kinky, John Fogerty, Aída Cuevas, Fernando de la Mora and Andrea Bocelli.

In a video shared on Gabriel’s official Twitter account, Juanes invites his fans to join him for a “heartfelt tribute” honoring the late singer.

Eternamente Juan Gabriel was announced by the chart-topping artist’s family back in December.

“We have the support of Mexico’s government to produce something of high quality, just like the concerts my father gave us,” the singer’s son, Iván Aguilera, said in a press conference. “It will be something very special where people will be able to relive the experience of watching their idol Juan Gabriel.”

Gustavo Farias, musical producer for the tribute concert, offered details about the production, teasing a “very big surprise”: “During performances, we will be showing images of Juan Gabriel but we have a very, very big surprise. I can’t say much yet but we will be using high quality technology.”

Jesse & Joy Notch The Duo’s Chart-Topper on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums

It’s a special first for Jesse & Joy

The Mexican pop duo, comprised of siblings Jesse Huerta and Joy Huerta, has earned its first No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums (chart dated Dec. 26).

Jesse & Joy

The announcement comes as Jesse & Joy’s,Un Besito Mas arrives at the top spot with 3,000 copies sold during the tracking week ending Dec. 10 (according to Nielsen Music).

The entry marks the fourth charted set for the Mexican siblings who first reached the tally in 2009 with Electricidad (No. 14 peak).

Meanwhile, single “Ecos de Amor,” from Besito, hops 35-32 on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart in its 12th week.

When the track debuted on the Oct. 10-dated chart, it ended a 22-week run of having no female-led songs on the chart. “Ecos” peaked at No. 30 (Nov. 7).

Over on Billboard’s Latin Pop Songs, chart the pair net the highest weekly debut with the set’s second single, “No Soy Una De Esas” featuring Alejandro Sanz. The song arrives at No. 19 — the act’s best entrance to date (of 15 charted songs). “Ecos” concurrently slides 19-24 on the list.

Jesse & Joy’s “Ecos de Amor” Debuts on Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs Chart and Snaps a Female-less Streak

Joy Huerta is bringing a woman’s voice to Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs chart…

The 29-year-old Mexican singer, half of the Latin Grammy-winning brother-sister duo Jesse & Joy, has helped bring some much-needed girl power to the chart as the pair’s “Ecos de Amor” bows at No. 41.

Jesse & Joy

Along with being the week’s highest debut on the chart, “Ecos de Amor” is also the first female-led song to appear on the chart in a whopping 22 weeks (Joy provides the vocals on the track).

The arrival is driven, in part, by a 17 percent increase at radio, also debuting at No. 49 on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart with 2.8 million audience impressions.

“Ecos de Amor” is Jesse & Joy’s 11th Hot Latin Songs hit, dating back to 2008 when “Espacio Sideral” peaked at No. 35.

Their best showing, however, came in 2012 when “Corre!” reached No. 4.

Jesse & Joy to Release Fourth Album “Un Besito Mas” on December 4

Jesse & Joy are ready to kiss and tell about their upcoming album…

The Mexican pop duo, comprised of siblings Jesse Huerta and Joy Huerta, will release their fourth album, Un Besito Más, on December 4 via Warner Music.

Jesse & Joy

For their latest album, Jesse & Joy expanded their production roster to include Fraser T. Smith (AdeleSam Smith), Grammy winner Martin Terefe (who handled production on their previous album, ¿Con Quién Se Queda el Perro?, which won them four Latin Grammy awards),and Dominican legend Juan Luis Guerra, alongside Jesse.

The first single, the hauntingly powerful ballad “Ecos de Amor,” positions Joy as a soulful songstress in her prime. The visuals to the official music video are equally stunning, thanks to Samuel Bayer who directed the single’s video.

It’s been 10 years since the pair’s Esta es mi Vida debut, and, as Jesse will humbly tell you, “we know there’s something we do that connects.”

So Jesse & Joy tried to staying true to their sound while exhibiting growth this time around.

“Coming from an album like ¿Con Quién Se Queda el Perro? the challenge was big. We got to that point because we did things we had never done before and I think this album is one of the most diverse we’ve done in terms of rhythms. It’s a bit riskier, even though the first single “Ecos de Amor” doesn’t necessarily show that riskier side. We chose that as the single because we wanted it to be that bridge between where we came from and where we are. We wrote most of the songs for this album during the ¿Con Quién Se Queda el Perro? tour, in between hotels and studios in different cities that we played in,” said Jesse in an interview with Billboard. “In fact, we wrote ‘Ecos de Amor’ three years ago and we’ve always sort of done it that way. We take our time. Right after a tour we take some time to depressurize and spend time with family. Then we go back and see what we have, what we love, what’s left to do, and then we finish an album.”
