  • Sparx ist eine US-amerikanische Musikgruppe mexikanischer Herkunft, die aus den vier Schwestern Verónica, Rosamaria, Kristyna und Carolina Sánchez Pohl besteht. Einige ihrer Musikprojekte entstanden in Zusammenarbeit mit ihrem Bruder Lorenzo Antonio. Sie alle wurden in Albuquerque, New Mexico, geboren und sind mexikanischer Abstammung. Bei den meisten ihrer Lieder ist Verónica die Hauptsängerin. Gelegentlich übernehmen aber auch Kristyna und Carolina diesen Part. Mit ihren vorwiegend in Spanisch gesungenen Liedern, für die sie mit mehreren Preisen ausgezeichnet wurden, haben sie dazu beigetragen, den Hispanics einen gewissen Stolz auf ihre Herkunft zu vermitteln, während im Gegensatz dazu die Massenmedien in den Vereinigten Staaten dazu neigen, die hispanischen Künstler zu marginalisieren.

In the 1990s they found fame in Mexico and most Latin American countries in addition to success in the United States, recording a variety of styles of songs including pop songs, as well as Latin music classics, corridos, cumbias, ballads, and boleros. They had their beginning taking part in a songwriting competition at the festival Juguemos a Cantar with the winning song "Vamos a Jugar". They appeared as "Lorenzo Antonio y Su Grupo" (Lorenzo Antonio and His Group). They've collaborated with their brother Lorenzo often, including with albums like Corridos Famosos, Latin folk songs like a take on Juan Gabriel's and Rocío Dúrcal's "Que Bonito es Santa Fé" and even country duets like "The Wild Side of Life/It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels". The sisters came from a musical family. Their father Amador Sanchez was a musician, songwriter, and record producer known as Tiny Morrie who had a huge hit "Cartas Tristes". Their mother, Gloria Pohl, was a vocalist who has recorded two albums. Their brother Lorenzo Antonio is also a renowned singing artist in his own right. Their uncles Al Hurricane dubbed Godfather of New Mexico music and Baby Gaby, as well as Al's son Al Hurricane, Jr. Many of their songs have hit the top 10 on Billboards Latin charts. The band has also been nominated for Billboard awards and the Lo Nuestro Award for Pop Group or Duo of the Year at the 7th Lo Nuestro Awards. Sparx members and their brother Lorenzo Antonio are very much involved in charity through Sparx Lorenzo Antonio Foundation. Since 2001, date of its establishment, the foundation distributes college scholarships for New Mexico high school students. (en)
