Mimy Succar is a Peruvian-American singer and musician of Japanese descent. She began performing with salsa orchestras in the 90s, eventually joining the more famous group "Salsa con Clase", with which she toured the world.
She hooked me since I first heard her for her energy. She conveys a certain strength, and joy, she has a warm aura I find easy to connect with. Plus, I appreciate her colorful aesthetic.
Interestingly, her son Tony Succar is also a renowned Latin musician known as a promising young talent, and already a two-time Latin Grammy Award winner. I knew them separately and it took me a while to make the connection…
He is a percussionist, composer, bandleader and producer who has produced music for artists like Christina Aguilera, Alejandro Sanz, and Gloria Estefan, whom his mother also has sung with.
Together, they have done some collaborations, like the songs "Hoy Es Tu Dia" (Today is Your Day) and "SUKIYAKI, or “AEO”.
I know there are plenty of cases of relatives who make music, each with a successful career. But I can’t think of many mother-and-son links. As I said, I enjoyed their music separately before I realized their connection, which speaks of their talent, I think. That’s why I wanted to share them here
