LATIN RECORDING ACADEMY NAMES LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT HONOREES

The Latin Recording Academy will honor Albita, Lolita Flores, Alejandro Lerner, Los Ángeles Azules, Draco Rosa and Lulu Santos with Lifetime Achievement Awards and Ángel "Cucco" Peña and Chucho Rincón with Trustees Awards during Latin Grammy week. The Latin Grammys will take place 11/14 at Miami's Kaseya Center.

"It is with great pride that we honor these musical legends, who continue redefining our music and heritage, and we look forward to celebrating them as part of our Latin Grammy 25th anniversary festivities in November,” said Manuel Abud, CEO of the Latin Recording Academy.

The Lifetime Achievement Award is presented to performers who've made creative contributions of outstanding artistic significance to Latin music and its communities. The Trustees Award is bestowed on non-performers who've made significant contributions to Latin music during their careers. Both are voted on by the Latin Recording Academy's Board of Trustees.
