Alex Ponce: The Rising Ecuadorian Star Making Waves In Latin Music
Alex Ponce is taking the Latin music scene by storm. The Ecuadorian singer-songwriter, signed to NEON16, has amassed an impressive following with over 2.5 million monthly listeners on Spotify, 418 million YouTube views, and over a million Instagram followers. Ponce’s music resonates deeply with listeners, marking him as a fresh and exciting voice in the industry.
His musical journey began in earnest in 2023. In May, Ponce released his debut EP, Noise: a five-song collection that showcased his signature sound—a blend of catchy hooks, emotive lyrics, and a modern pop sensibility. August saw the release of his second EP, Silence, a four-song project that further explored his artistic depth and versatility.
To cap off an incredible year, Ponce delivered Noise, Silence and Me, his much-anticipated debut album, in October. This 13-track masterpiece brought his trilogy to a satisfying conclusion, offering a cohesive and captivating listening experience.
Ponce’s music has already earned him global recognition. In May, he performed at the Tecate Emblema festival as part of his international Would Give Everything Tour. Mexican fans eagerly embraced his performance, singing along to hits like "Plan," "Go and Tell Them," "Betrayal, and "I would Give Everything."
That same month saw Ponce release "Go and Tell Them V2 – Remix" featuring renowned Latin artists Lasso and Sebastian Llosa. The collaboration further solidified his position in the Latin music landscape, leading to a coveted opportunity: opening for Lasso on his U.S. tour, performing in Miami, Orlando, Atlanta, and Chicago. It wasn’t his first time opening for a major Latin music star – Ponce previously opened for the legendary Juanes in Quito and Guayaquil.
A testament to his artistic growth and ambition, Ponce just released "The Without Feelings", the lead single from his album. This collaboration with fellow Ecuadorian artist BLANK marks a first for Ponce, showcasing his willingness to explore new partnerships and musical horizons.
Looking ahead, Ponce is gearing up for his much-anticipated album tour, set to kick off in 2025. Fans across Latin America and Mexico are eagerly awaiting the chance to experience Ponce’s music live, singing along to every track from Noise, Silence and Me for the very first time.
