His “Confidencias World Tour” visited more than 15 countries over three years and was seen by more than three million fans.
In celebration of his 25th anniversary as an artist, he launched his new album, “Rompiendo Fronteras,” in which his versatility as an artist is demonstrated in the rhythms and genres that can be heard in this material. This album went to #1 on the Billboard charts and received Gold and Platinum Discs in several countries days after the release.
Fernández has broken sales and radio records in his pop projects, the genre in which he has established himself with a unique style that has evolved with him through the years.
