Listen to singer/songwriter Joan Sebastian's latest studio album, "Inventario," and it's no wonder Billboard magazine awarded him its Hall of Fame honor at the 2006 Billboard Latin Music Awards last month.
Sebastian has been enticing fans with eloquent, lyrical prose for nearly three decades, and he boasts more than 30 albums of original material to his name.
"Nowadays when I write my songs, I'm not looking for a hit or thinking about how to please the market," Sebastian told Playback Magazine in 2004, shortly after the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers named him Songwriter of the Year. "I'm pulling up my experiences and the lessons life's taught me and sharing them with the people I love. . . . Hits will come and go, but the hearts that I touch with my music are what really matter to me."
Sebastian will probably touch a few hearts when he performs at Casino del Sol's AVA, 5655 W. Valencia Road, Saturday night.
