Jhon de la Torre Mexico love Semana HEAT 2026, Digi Mart USA News (Jalisco, Mexico): During Semana HEAT 2026, Colombian singer-songwriter Jhon de la Torre reaffirmed his connection to Mexico, a country that has influenced his career since childhood. “If I could turn back time and choose where to be born, it would be Mexico,” said the artist, who is nominated in the Musical Promise category.
Jhon de la Torre highlighted the importance of ranchera music and major icons such as Pedro Infante, Vicente Fernández and Joan Sebastian in his artistic development. His style blends ranchera and Mexican cumbia with elements of Colombian folklore, reflecting an emotional heritage left to him by his grandfather, affectionately known as “Jalisco.”
On the magenta carpet at the event in Jalisco, the singer wore an outfit paying tribute to Joan Sebastian and expressed his desire to conquer Mexican stages. He also commented on the demands of Mexican audiences: “In Mexico, elegant music is made for demanding ears.”
Looking ahead, Jhon de la Torre is working on a new six-song EP with producer Master Chris. The project will include intercultural collaborations, including a ranchera track with maestro Eddy Herrera and a popular cumbia with Colombian performer Francy.
Music video recordings are scheduled for December, ahead of a release aimed at connecting with audiences across Latin America.
