Bio

Huey Dunbar (born Eustace Dunbar IV; May 15, 1974) is the former singer of Dark Latin Groove.Born to a Puerto Rican mother and a Jamaican father, he was exposed to music since his earliest years due to his parents' musical careers.His hits with the band included "La quiero a morir", "Juliana", "No Morirá", "Volveré", "Todo mi corazón", and a remake of Ricardo Montaner's original classic "Me va a extrañar".In 2000, he split up with DLG and since had a solo career which, though commercially successful, has not equaled the diverse acclaim accorded DLG.For his first solo album he was awarded "Best New Artist" by Billboard magazine, and received a Grammy nomination.The album was certified Gold and Platinum by RIAA.In 2007 Dunbar was invited by producer Sergio George to reunite with DLG, but Dunbar refused.The seven-year gap between Dunbar's 2003 and 2010 albums has not been publicly explained, but is uncharacteristic of a popular star at the peak of his career.Sales of "Huey Dunbar IV" were strong in Latin America.In Billboard's Tropical Songs chart, the single "Te amaré" had moved from the number 9 song to number 4."Huey Dunbar IV", debuted on the Tropical Albums chart at Number 2 on March 20, 2010.
