Tierra Legacy

Tierra, a pioneering Chicano band founded in 1972 by Rudy and Steve Salas, achieved national fame in 1981 with their hit song "Together," reaching #14 on Billboard Magazine's Hot 100. Rudy and Steve's tragic passing due to Covid in 2020 and 2022, respectively, has left a void in the music industry, but the Salas family has made the decision to keep their music alive through “Tierra Legacy.” Tierra has had a remarkable career spanning generations and includes chart-topping hits. The band was named "Best R&B Vocal Group" by four leading magazines, including Billboard, in the early 1980s. They began their career in East Los Angeles with a unique blend of rock, pop, jazz, R&B, and salsa, creating an infectious Latin/R&B rhythm that produced classics such as "Together," "Gonna Find Her” and "Memories," Tierra was also the first Latino/American band to have four songs on national charts and two simultaneously in the Top 100. Tierra's legacy lives on through the band's new iteration, “Tierra Legacy”, wholly owned by the Salas family
