Macario Martínez is a singer-songwriter who became an overnight sensation and is poised to be the next great “Música Mexicana” superstar. With a story that could have come straight out of a movie, Macario became an overnight sensation after a viral TikTok promoting his single “sueña lindo, corazón” reminded an entire country that the world is full of talent and dreams to chase. His powerful story has already taken him and his music to Mexico’s most important stages, and his hit single now has accumulated over 21 million streams on Spotify and the official video has reached over 1 million views on YouTube. After his viral moment, Macario showcased his talent for some of Mexico’s biggest crowds at iconic festivals like Monterrey’s Festival Tecate Pal Norte and Mexico City’s Vive Latino, where he also shared a stage with local icons Little Jesus and Porter. In these shows, Macario captured the hearts of crowds and proved that “sueña lindo, corazón” is just one of many great songs in his growing repertoire. Before he found his audience, Macario had already released an EP and an album as an independent artist; both have received critical acclaim after surfacing to the mainstream. “He has emerged as a working-class folk hero.” - Wall Street Journal “'Hey, destiny don’t be cruel,' Macario sings in one of his not-yet viral singles. So far, destiny seems to be listening”. - El País “Macario Martinez has racked up millions of views with his rags-to-riches story and has become Mexico's latest pop star.” - NPR Macario Martinez on Instagram / TikTok

You’re invited to the opening night of "Hiding in Plain Site," a debut retrospective featuring the deeply personal and powerful work of multidisciplinary artist and designer Joseph A. Henseler, on Saturday, July 12, 2025, at Union Hall Gallery in San Diego; the exhibition will run through August 10. After creating in near-anonymity for over 30 years, Henseler brings 90 original works—sculpture, stained glass, painting, architectural design, and more into the light.

Closing weekend (August 9) will feature a special performance by Henseler’s wife, Chilean vocalist Lorena Isabell, and will be dedicated to survivors of domestic abuse and neglect, a deeply personal cause for the artist.
