Regulo Caro (born November 5, 1981)[1] is a Mexican singer and songwriter.

Biography[edit]

Caro was born and raised in Cajeme, Sonora, and grew up in Ciudad Obregón, Sonora. Descended from musicians, uncles and grandparents, since he was a small child, he showed his strong inclination towards music. At the age of 13, he decided to form a band. At 16, he had some experience at parties and meetings. He finished his bachelor's degree in business administration, which he only practiced for a few months, since his desire for music was latent. As a composer, he has worked with important exponents of regional Mexican music such as his cousin Gerardo Ortíz, Los Nuevos Rebeldes, Banda MS, Raúl Hernández, Los Buitres de Culiacán, and Alfredo Olivas.

Caro is one of the most popular artists of the regional Mexican genre and has received countless awards, including a Latin Grammy nomination, a BMI award, gold record, a star on the Las Vegas Walk of Stars,[2] among others. His albums have positioned themselves in the Top 5 of the Regional Mexican Albums list of Billboard magazine and their songs have reached the first places of the lists of popularity.[3]
