La India In Concert
Blessed with a vivacious vibrato that can instantly lure spectators to the dance floor, La India has done it all, lending her voice to a wide range of musical styles. Whether belting out to freestyle, house music, Latin pop, or reggaeton, she marked her legacy as the Princess of Salsa — a grand title bestowed by the late salsa legend, Celia Cruz.
Born Linda Viera Caballero in Puerto Rico in 1969, La India was raised in the tropical haven of the South Bronx. She consumed a steady diet of Fania All-Stars, which included salsa masterminds like Hector Lavoe, Rubén Blades, and Johnny Pacheco.
La India began recording music with producer-turned-husband "Little Louie" Vega during the 1980s and released now-classic house jams "I Can't Get No Sleep" and "When You Touch Me" as part of Vega's Master at Work project. She also was a co-founding member of the Latin freestyle group TKA.
At the turn of the decade, the spirited singer announced her arrival in a big way when renowned salsa bandleader Eddie Palmieri heard the rising star unleash her towering pipes at the studio, which led to the release of ‘Llego La India via Eddie Palmieri.' Immersing herself deep into the world of tropical music, La India dropped her 1994 solo debut, the now 2x-gold certified ‘Dicen Que Soy' via RMM, New York's leading salsa label of that decade. Throughout the rest of the ‘90s, the singer continued to rise high, often seen collaborating with the likes of Marc Anthony, Celia Cruz, and Tito Puente.
To date, La India has reached No. 1 six times in Billboard's U.S. Tropical Albums charts, including her latest 2015 tribute to one of Mexico's most prolific composers — ‘Intensamente Con Canciones de Juan Gabriel,' which also peaked at No. 3 in the U.S. Latin Albums charts.
Horrible Experience
by Das on 11/27/21Stereo Garden - PatchogueRating: 1 out of 5First of all it was not a concert, ticketmaster promoted this event at 8pm, doors to the "club" didn't open until 9pm. It was 20⁰ outside and when we finally got inside staff was still setting up. We left at approximately 10:30pm-11pm and did not get to see La India. Very disappointed, if i could i would get my money back.

by ChantelF on 8/12/13B.B. King Blues Club and Grill - New YorkRating: 4 out of 5The show started promptly at 9pm (shocker) and La India playes all of her classics and sounded better than ever. The show was held at a great venue and the crowd was well behaved. I highly recommend this venue and the artists La India, Princess of Salsa
Loved her in the 90's but.....
by HR1666 on 8/12/13B.B. King Blues Club and Grill - New YorkRating: 2 out of 5We really loved La India at the end of the '90s and were glad to see she was attempting yet another comeback. The concert started well with a couple of her old big hits but then got weird. The remaining of the concert was mostly about all the pain and suffering she had experienced in past 10 years presented by simple piano-accompanied monologue songs. She also talked several times about her problems and survival, and how she had been partly saved by the pole-dancing younger girl which was now part of the band. Most of performers and even wanna-be performers understand that audience comes to concerts TO BE ENTERTAINED and to have good time. Please please please, don't BRING YOUR PERSONAL BAGGAGE TO YOUR SHOW! We are there to have fun time, not to be your therapists! I wish we could have skipped this concert. We had beautiful memories of La India in the 90's (and had even seen her in Carnegie Hall in 2002, at the old Coba in 2003 and at Lincoln Center in 2010). But I don't think we will pay to go see her again, sorry.
La India was out of this world!!!!!!!!!!
by Babygirl78 on 2/17/13Howard Theatre - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5The whole concert was stupendous. She was looking so beautiful. Just the way she sung, gave me goosebumps. I would go back again and again to see her. It is a shame that it was a short concert because if it would of been a longer, it would of made a difference.
She's still got it!
by JayM93 on 2/16/13Howard Theatre - WashingtonRating: 5 out of 5Ever since I was a child I remember those Sunday mornings cleaning the house with my mother as she played her India CD's. This woman has been through a lot and you can see that with the power of her voice and with the prideful way she carries herself. Hands-down one of the best performances I've ever seen. She's funny, beautiful, charming, talented and boricua all in one! Definitely a must see! I can finally cross this off of my bucket list!
