Andy Rivera

Andy Rivera, born Andrés Felipe Rivera Galeano on October 28, 1994, in Pereira, Colombia, is a trailblazing voice in Latin urban music. Growing up with music in his blood—his father is legendary Colombian singer Jhonny Rivera—Andy began playing piano and honing his vocal talent early on. While his father favored traditional sounds, Andy carved his own path into the world of reggaeton, Latin pop, and trap, setting the stage for a fresh musical journey.

He made his official debut in 2012 with “En Busca Con Ella” alongside Pipe Calderón, but it was the smash hit “Te Pintaron Pajaritos” with Yandar & Yostin that launched him into stardom. The song quickly spread across Latin America and Spain, signaling the arrival of a new urban star. Andy followed up with high-profile collaborations, including tracks with Nicky Jam (“Los Perros Se Enamoran”), Dálmata (“Espina de Rosa”), and the 2014 mega-hit “Salgamos” with Maluma and Kevin Roldán, which became a YouTube sensation.

Known for his ability to blend infectious rhythms with raw emotion, Andy’s projects—like The New Age (2016), Substance EP (2017), 50/50 (2019), and DUAL EP (2022)—highlight his growth as both a storyteller and a performer. His songs often navigate the highs and lows of love, loss, and self-discovery, connecting deeply with fans across generations.

With over a decade in the industry and accolades like Best Urban Artist at the 2020 Latino Show Awards, Andy Rivera continues to redefine what it means to be a Latin urban artist in today’s global music scene.
