John Welsh & Los Valientes began with the belief that music has the power to bring people together regardless of language, age or culture. Front man John Welsh became exposed to many cultures at an early age living in Europe, Central America and Japan where he learned to connect with new people using his guitar and knack for learning languages. Blending upbeat rhythms from Latin, reggae, calypso and east coast Canadiana he began performing his unique style at college parties with strong support from the international student community. 

A favourite at summer festivals and outdoor events, the band are current nominees for “World Artist of the Year” at this years Western Canadian Music Awards. In 2017 their album "Vamonos Mi Chica" debuted at #2 on the iTunes Canada World Charts and produced two radio singles in Mexico with “Sayulita” and “Me Hace Sentir”. In 2018 the band’s song “ Sayulita” surpassed 600k streams on Spotify and garnered support from listeners all over Latin America. With performances from Edmonton, Alberta to Tijuana, Mexico the band has gained fans of all ages and cultures with their diverse sound and positive message. John Welsh & Los Valientes are currently hard at work on their next album and will be back on the road next spring.
