Grammy-nominated El David Aguilar is one of the most versatile singer-songwriters to emerge from Mexico’s independent music scene. 

His music draws from Mexican folk traditions, Latin American and Brazilian influences, and American rock, pop and folk music from the 1960s through the 1990s. Aguilar’s poetic lyrics and rich harmonic sensibility have made him a frequent collaborator with artists including Natalia Lafourcade, Jorge Drexler and Mon Laferte. 

El David’s latest album, Compita del Destino (Universal, 2024), is a collection of songs reflecting on life, love and fate.
