Event Details
Garnering four Latin GRAMMY nominations (two wins) and six EMMY Nominations (and one win), husband and wife duo Lucky Diaz and Alisha Gaddis are LUCKY DIAZ and the FAMILY JAM BAND!
Named ‘THE face of kiddie music’ by the Washington Post, ‘SUPERSTARS’ by Red Tricycle, ‘The Rolling Stones of Kids Music’ by the Style Network, and PEOPLE Magazine called their album “The #1 in COOLEST kids music!”
They create indie music sounds that are rooted in their whimsical child-friendly imaginations. The songs on their eleven acclaimed and award-winning recordings offer a musical and topical range aimed at exploring all of the wonder and joy of a young person’s life. After they teamed up with artist Micah Player, their 2011 video “Blue Bear” became a hit sensation. The song appeared on their very first EP, Luckiest Adventure, and enjoyed the #1 position on SiriusXM Satellite Radio for many weeks in 2010.
By 2011, USA Today was calling them the best new band for kids. In 2012, the band released A Potluck, which People magazine reviewed as the #1 new children’s album of the year. The new songs enjoyed heavy radio rotation nationwide. A Potluck earned a Parents’ Choice Gold Award, a NAPPA Award, and many other kudos by year’s end.
Next, Latin GRAMMY Award-winning, ¡Fantastico! Translating their hit “Blue Bear” into “Oso Azul” and re-introducing songs like “Say What?” as “¿Que Dices?”(Also a #1 hit on SiriusXM), Lucky Diaz and the Family Jam Band’s Spanish language release found a new audience of families yearning to immerse their youngest listeners in dual language right from the start. SiriusXM’s Mindy Thomas said that it set the standard for Spanish-language music for kids, and ¡Fantastico! went on to be the first album ever to win a Latin GRAMMY by an American group in its category.
