Lenny Santos (born October 24, 1979) is the guitarist and musical producer/arranger of the bachata group, Aventura. Born in the Bronx, Lenny fell in love with music at age 15. Like most kids his age, his music of choice was hip-hop. However, with Dominican parents, bachata was a permanent household staple - the soulful twang of the “requinto” always in the background, day and night. It was only logical that Lenny would experiment by blending his two favorite musical styles – bachata and hip-hop. It is Lenny who created unique the Aventura sound; his excellence and creativity as a producer are evident from the first bar of any tune on Aventura’s albums. Lenny’s approach to bachata has been imitated by young, aspiring guitarists, as well as professionals who have added elements of his signature style to their own productions. Lenny is an active musical producer in his own right, having signed and produced his own group “Huellas de tiempo,” and others.
