Óscar Armando Díaz de León Huez, known professionally as Carín León, (born 26 July 1989) is a Mexican singer-songwriter who specializes in regional Mexican music.

Career

[edit]

León began playing the guitar at the age of 15. His first band was Los Reales, before founding Grupo Arranke with four friends in 2010. The group gained traction with their song "A Través del Vaso". He was a member of Grupo Arranke for seven years, until starting a solo career in 2018. His career took off with his solo version of "A Través del Vaso". His other songs "Me La Avente" and "Tú", a cover of the 1999 song by Noelia, both charted on Billboard's Hot Latin Songs, Latin Airplay, and Regional Mexican Airplay charts.[2] In 2021, he also released a cover of "More Than Words" by Extreme and later a version of "Moscas en la Casa" by Shakira, which was part of his album Pistiembre Todo El Año.[3]

During the global shutdown of major venues and concert halls due to the COVID-19 pandemic, León pivoted into podcasts, alternative radio and emerging platforms for greater distribution. This was also in large part thanks to the dramatic overall increase in interest in regional Mexican music globally, as noted by Spotify.[4] León appeared on NPR's 'Tiny Desk' on September 19, 2022.[5]

León won the Latin Grammy Award for Best Regional Mexican Song in 2022 for the song "Como lo Hice Yo" alongside Édgar Barrera and Matisse.[6] In 2022, he was the third most streamed Mexican artist on Spotify.[7]

His single "Que Vuelvas" with Grupo Frontera was number one for six weeks on the Regional Mexican Airplay chart in 2023.[8]

León won his second Latin Grammy in 2023; this time for the Best Norteño Album with his third studio album, Colmillo de Leche.[9]

On February 23, 2024, León made his debut in one of country music's most prestigious venues, the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee.[10]

On April 14, 2024, León debuted at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in California during its first weekend.[11] Six days later, he was presented with the key to the City of Coachella by the city council.[12] The next day, León again performed at the Coachella Festival during its second weekend.[13] On April 26, León debuted at Coachella's country music-themed sister festival, Stagecoach.[14]

On October 4, 2024, León made his debut at the Austin City Limits Music Festival in Zilker Park.[15] The following day, he debuted on Austin City Limits at the Moody Center.[16]

León received his third Latin Grammy in 2024; this time for the Best Contemporary Mexican Music Album with his fourth studio album, Boca Chueca, Vol. 1.[17]

Personal life

[edit]

León was born in Hermosillo, Sonora, to Óscar Díaz de León and Carmen Julia Huez. He is married and has two children.[1]
