Mexican Singer-Songwriter Caloncho Will Bring His Rhythmic Sounds to ZeyZey

On his latest album, Tofu, Mexican singer-songwriter Caloncho serves a flavorful mix of tropical sounds and introspective ballads, creating a truly dynamic listening experience. The Latin Grammy nominee has earned a reputation for his calming voice and organic style, using original lyrics to create peaceful and inspiring tracks.

"I am sure that music heals," says Caloncho, reflecting on his approach to music. "I want the listener to feel joy and coziness. We can get to great new thoughts and conclusions when navigating a comfortable song or piece of music."

The musician embodies that philosophy on Tofu, with sounds ranging from tropical bachata to elegant, rhythmic songs, covering a range of emotional tones from sweet to bitter, much like life itself.

Caloncho is bringing his El Tour del Tofu to ZeyZey on Thursday, November 7. Opening the show is Costa Rican-American singer-songwriter CES, an endeavor by Cesar Paniagua that draws inspiration from the biodiversity of the Costa Rican jungle and the cultural tapestry of Miami. CES complements Caloncho's organic and soulful sound, making for a perfect sonic pairing.

Beyond his musical impact, Caloncho is also deeply committed to environmental causes. His Día a Día project, created in collaboration with his management team, promotes sustainability by encouraging daily changes in consumption habits.
"My favorite event of the year is a reforestation we do in the summer in Mexico with our whole team and audience," he explains, highlighting his hands-on approach to environmental action. As the project continues to grow, it fosters awareness and tangible positive change.

While Miami has a reputation for being on the rowdier side, Caloncho's experience was nothing but positive while performing a show in the Magic City last year.

"It was a great experience; lovely audience, so I'm stoked to be back," he says of last year's show.

He appreciates the warmth and enthusiasm of Miami's audience, who he feels truly embrace his show. For an artist whose music often fosters a quiet, healing atmosphere, Caloncho's ability to connect deeply with Miami's vibrant yet diverse listeners stands out.

With four Latin Grammy nominations, including "Best Singer-Songwriter Album" in 2022 and "Contemporary Pop Vocal Album" in 2024, Caloncho continues to impress critics and fans alike. Don't miss your chance to experience his soulful music live.

Caloncho. 8 p.m. Thursday, November 7, at ZeyZey, 353 NE 61st St., Miami; zeyzeymiami.com. Tickets cost $39 via seetickets.us.
