Hailing from the Sinoloa region of Mexico, Espinoza Paz began writing songs at an early age, many of which were recorded and made popular in the mid-2000s by other artists, including El Coyote, La Arrolladora Banda el Limon, Sergio Vega, and Banda Cuisillos. In 2007, Paz decided to begin recording as a solo artist, and released his debut and sophomore efforts independently. These albums generated enough interest to get Paz signed to Universal Latino, who put out the album EL CANTA AUTOR DEL PUEBLO in 2008. The hit single “El Proximo Viernes” made significant inroads on Billboard’s Hot Latin Tracks chart.
