Fiesta de la Flor welcomes star-studded lineup including 14-year-old

Fiesta de la Flor has put itself on the festival map as the place to celebrate Tejano icon Selena Quintanilla Perez. But the festival also is known for gathering successful Latino and Latina artists and up-and-comers in one place.

This year’s lineup on the Musica en Vivo stage is no different. Headliners La Mafia and AB Quintanilla 3 y Elektro Kumbia are set to stun the evening audiences, but the star-studded lineup offers music lovers other acts with whom to reconnect or discover anew.

Young vocal powerhouse Isabel Marie Sanchez, 14, returns to the festival for a second year.

“For me, being such a young artist in the industry, it’s really an honor to be a part of such a prestigious event and to be invited again by Mr. Quintanilla and the Quintanilla family,” Isabel Marie said. (Full story in Caller-Times)
