Formed of singer Jesús Alberto Navarro Rosas and guitarist Julio Ramírez Eguía in 2003, Reik, recorded an early demo which spawned the singles “Levemente” and Ahora sin Ti”. Before long the songs had become staples in the Latin club scene and earned a significant amount of radio airplay. Due to the success the duo invited backing vocalist and guitarist Gilberto “Bibi” Marin Espinoza to fill-out the sound, and subsequently signed with Sony Music in mid-2004.
With producers Abelardo Vázquez and Kiko Cibrian at the reigns, Reik began recording their debut album in 2004. Released in May 2005 the eponymous debut charted well within the Latin charts’ Top 20 aided by the No. One singles “Yo Quisiera” and “Qué Vida La Mía”. The album went on to sell over 120,000 copies and was supported by a promotional tour of the U.S. including dates in Miami, McAllen, San Antonio, Houstion, Dallas, and New York.
In 2006 Reik released their sophomore album “Secuencia” which spawned the singles “Sabes”, “Invierno” and “Me Duele Amarte”. The band’s subsequent album “Un Día Más” released in 2009 earned Reik their first Latin Grammy award for Best Pop Album by a Duo or Group with Vocals. The group went on to release the EP “Mi Pecado” in 2009, the full-length “Peligro” in 2011, and the concert recording “En Vivo desde el Auditorio Nacional” in 2013.

Reik is a Mexican band from Baja California, but even if you don’t speak a word of Spanish you will still love their soulful lyrics and melodies. They lead singer is also really great at playing the guitar and you will hear many solos from him.
There is a hint of The Eagles in their music and they sing with such passion. There lyrics are absolutely beautiful. You will see many females in their audience because they are very cute, but they are more than just looks. They can really play and they have great harmony. They are usually playing at a larger venue but it is not too big to feel intimate.
Like I said earlier, you don’t even have to speak a word of Spanish to somehow understand what they are singing about. The lead singer has a magical voice that will hypnotize you. Once you attend a concert you will be waiting to go back again. The lead singer really like to talk to the audience while he is singing. This makes the setting feel even more intimate.These guys are one of my favorites and they remind me of a male Selena (the lead anyway). Like Selena, he knows how to captivate his audience!
