Torch File PhotoLatin Night Club: Students learn­ing some Latin dance moves last year dur­ing Hispanic Heritage Month.

With Hispanic Heritage Month begin­ning, Multi-cultural Student Services has lined up the Latin group Mr. LAC y El OSO to perform.

Mr. LAC y El OSO will be per­form­ing a free event for all dur­ing the Ferris Hispanic Festival on Wednesday Sept. 16, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the quad, or the Rankin Center Dome room in the event of inclement weather.

Mr. LAC was born in Guatemala and El OSO was born in Mexico so they both grew up lis­ten­ing to Latin music.

Both Mr. LAC and El OSO have been sep­a­rately per­form­ing for a num­ber of years. They com­bined their musi­cal tal­ent in 2006 to form the group.

This duo’s music is described as Spanish-Urban music. Mr. LAC y El OSO is con­sid­ered to be the best Latin duo in their genre accord­ing to myxer​.com. They can play a vari­ety of music from Spanish Hip-Hop to the Salsa and Meringue.

Since 2006, the duo has released two albums, the first one released in 2006. Their sec­ond album, titled Original & Versatile, fol­lowed in 2008. This album was the key to their suc­cess with all orig­i­nal tracks recorded and pro­duced by Mr. LAC.

This suc­cess has led to a tour around the U.S. with stops in Sacramento, Los Angeles, and Indianapolis.

With the tour being a hit among fans, Mr. LAC y El OSO had the oppor­tu­nity to per­form with many other big names includ­ing Xtreme and Yung Jeezy.

They are cur­rently work­ing on a new album fea­tur­ing artist Prospect Da Child, Giggles, and many more. The release date is still uncertain.

Mr. LAC y El OSO believes they have found music to be their long-term career.
