Evelyn Rubio

If you haven’t caught an Evelyn Rubio show then you are missing something. This sexy, sultry multi-talented artist is hot, hot, hot. Talk about stage presence and the ability to deliver this woman gets it done. From her toe tapping original high energy songs down to her seductive romantic torch songs such as “I’m Going To Love You Tonight” this lady brings the night alive. When Evelyn performed her “He Did Me Wrong But He Did It Right” at Mattorosso in Montebelluna Italy the women in the audience gave her a standing ovation shouting bravo,bravo. Evelyn had recorded the song in both English and Spanish and delivered the tune in both languages. While in Las Vegas performing at the noted jazz enclave The Dispensary Ms. Rubio blew the crowd away with songs from her Billboard charting album “Hombres”. A performance so good that to this day Evelyn has a standing offer to perform anytime she is visiting the entertainment capital of the world. Most recently Evelyn unveiled her newest album “Crossing Borders” produced by Grammy Award winner Mr. Larry Fulcher. A compilation of heart felt solid numbers. One being “I Don’t Understand” a social injustice narrative from the viewpoint of just not understanding the visible rejection of others in a modern day world. The other “Border Town” which includes Evelyn’s marvelous sax appeal presents the story of a lonely woman finding true love that is so hard to find. The album contains fifteen tracks, three of which are in her native language, Spanish. All of the songs were recorded with top shelf Grammy Award winning musicians that delivered a wall of sound. Recorded in three cities: Los Angeles, Austin, and Houston with the executive production being handled by Productions on Seaspeed “Crossing Borders” is yet another from the heart release from Ms. Rubio. Earlier this year Evelyn was also in the studio recording with outlaw country artist Steve Griggs at Lucky Run Studio, Americana recording artist Chris Gardner at Wire Road Studio, and soon to be released her magnificent sax work will be featured on rock icon Al Staehely’s new release “Feel the Heat”. Evelyn also teamed with Relaxing Blues Productions and her “I’m Going To Love You Tonight” music video is currently passing the 27,000 views mark along with yet another just released music video, her duet with Chris Gardner, on You Tube “Miracles”. Then add to that Evelyn’s new “Border Town” video, which was shot on location, is currently being featured on her YouTube channel. Beyond the music one only has to review Evelyn’s biography to realize that the woman was destined to rise up and cross borders bringing her rich Hispanic heritage to the U.S. and beyond. It was Evelyn’s Mother that encouraged her at a young age to advance her skills, which would lead her to the leading role of Mary Magdalene in the Canadian production of “Jesus Christ Superstar”. Later, after arriving in the United States, an introduction to Calvin Owens would lead her to record “Hombres” which would eventually be spun on radio stations around the globe. Evelyn would record with B.B. King bandleader James “Boogaloo” Bolden as well as perform with the Richard Brown Orchestra. Evelyn’s career has taken her to Europe and then back to her beloved Mexico to perform at the top vacation spots in that country as well. All the while penning her songs for her newest release “Crossing Borders”. Today with Covid in place Evelyn is taking it easy in a border town where she enjoys the sunny days and jogging on the beach by the crystal clear waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
