The Recording Academy® Statement Re: Joan Sebastian July 14, 2015
"Joan Sebastian was undoubtedly one of Mexico’s most talented and beloved musicians and performers. A four-time GRAMMY® Award winner and seven-time Latin GRAMMY winner, he wrote at least 1,000 songs and released more than 60 albums since starting his professional career at the age of 17. We have lost a truly gifted and cherished musician and our sincerest condolences go out to Joan’s family, friends, collaborators and all who have been impacted by his incredible work."
