For
over 5 years, Latin gospel listeners in the US and Puerto Rico
have known Puchi Colon as a young vocalist dedicated to the
Music ministry. Throughout the years, he has poured love and
passion into the ministry that God has placed in his heart.
At the age of twelve, Puchi began playing keyboards in church
and since that time has become an accomplished arranger and
producer. He recognizes that his talent is a gift from God and
should be used to bring glory to His kingdom.
Puchi's
first production "Voy A Comenzar" (Penvel Records)
was recorded in 1996, which opened many doors for him and his
ministry. Subsequently in 1997, God led Brother Ralph Hernandez
and Jose "Rock" Lopez to establish the band; and soon
after they added members Carlos Carrasquillo, Roberto Morales,
Ralph Dingui Jr., and Mike Colon. Since that time, Puchi Colon
and his band have been touring the United States spreading the
gospel through music and testimony.
Puchi
resides in New Jersey with his wife JoAnn and his three children
Gabriel, Mickael and Joel. They attend Ark of Refuge Christian
Center in nearby Hamilton, New Jersey. Puchi and JoAnn believe
that the Lord has united them to work for His kingdom and reach
souls in need of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Since
February 2000, Puchi has been dedicating his time to establish
Jovi Productions. He is both founder and CEO of the company,
which is dedicated to producing quality Latin music for the
glory of God. The first album produced by Puchi for Jovi Productions
“Busca A Jesus” was released in 2001. That album featured
rich Spanish vocals spun together with Latin melodies.
Puchi
Colon’s new project “Salsa Praise” continues
to deliver the high quality Latin style music you want, but
this time in English. Puchi and his band, intertwine smooth
Hispanic flavored vocals with pleasing salsa melodies to produce
an album that will encourage everyone to praise God – “salsa-style”!
