The Magic Band was created by percussionist Peter Castañon in 1989. Peter grew up in a musical family dedicated to entertainment. His mother, Lillian Martinez, performed with Perez Prado, Lino Rodriquez Orquestra, and numerous local artists. At ten years old, Peter had the opportunity to perform with his mother Lillian and step-father Ernest Martinez in a hot Latino Band that was a 209 favorite. From that time on, he has performed locally and nationally with top name acts.
