“For both him and Jeff, it’s been many years of growing, learning and working alongside with us, and we’re very excited to have Carlos step into this new chapter representing Rawa and the new generation of talent that’s to come at Brocoli Records.

Excited for many more years of growing together with the guys.” “Rawayana and Brocoli Records have been a huge part of my life for the past 10 years.

We’ve grown together, taken risks together, made plenty of mistakes, and learned from every step along the way.

Taking on this new role feels incredibly special after so many years of building and learning together,” Salas adds.

“Having grown up watching Rawayana, if someone had told me 15 years ago that I’d be in this position today, I probably wouldn’t have believed them.

I’m incredibly grateful to the Rawas, Jeff, and the entire Brocoli Records team for the trust, and very excited for everything we still have ahead of us.” The new structure follows three years of co-management between Sound of Light and Brocoli Records, a period that coincided with a significant chapter of growth for Rawayana over three album cycles and their corresponding world tours: ¿ Quién Trae Las Cornetas? (2023), which earned the band their first Latin Grammy and Grammy Award wins; ASTROPICAL (2025), a collaborative album with Bomba Estéreo; and ¿Dónde Es El After? (2026), their biggest album debut to date, which produced their first Billboard Latin Airplay No.
