Xtreme is a famous and popular Latin American band that existed from 2003 to 2011.
Xtreme is recognized for its sensuous bachata performances and original, romantic Latin American compositions. A distinctive feature of the group is its own unique style and inimitable performance of the singers.
The band's first success came with the song Te Extraño. The popular song was included in the first album and repeatedly occupied a leading position in the top music charts.
The main success of the second album was the single Shorty, Shorty. Another famous single was written under the inspiration of love feelings at a distance and the impossibility of such a relationship, I Have You Here.
The group was founded in 2003, but in fact it began its activities in 2004. The youth group included two young and talented guys from Dominican families who once immigrated to New York.
At a certain point in history, there was also a third performer in the team, but he soon left the group.
Singers of romantic songs:
- vocals - Danny Mejia (date of birth: July 23, 1985, place of birth - The Bronx (New York));
- backing vocals - Steven Tejada (date of birth: November 25, 1985, place of birth - Manhattan (New York)).
Among the main genres of song performance are latina and bachata. In 2004, the debut album was released, which took 14th position in the Latin American songs chart.
The second collection of Haciendo Historia was presented to the public after 2 years. At one time, he reached the 13th position of the music chart. The third album, Chapter Dos, was released in November 2008.
Unfortunately, 2011 was the last year of joint work of talented performers.
Among the popular singles: Lloro Y Lloro, Baby, Baby, Shorty, Shorty. At that time, romantic compositions by young performers sounded at almost all Latin American parties. And until now, they can often be heard among fans of the performers' creativity.
