HOUSTON - At 20 years of age, Mexican-American singer and songwriter Xavi has taken the regional Mexican music landscape by storm. Born in Phoenix, Arizona, but raised in both the United States and Mexico, Xavi has been able to render his dual-national identity into music accurately.
Influenced by social media, YouTube and his family's roots, he began teaching himself to play guitar at the age of 10 and by the time he was 15 years old, he started posting videos and songs online. But as Xavi revealed in an exclusive interview with The Latin Times, music was not part of his long-term plans.
