Thania Garcia Myke Towers is eager for his fans to get their hands on his third studio album, “La Vida Es Una” (“Life Is One”).

At the same time, he exudes a desire to reconnect with his listeners, both on- and off-stage. “I made [‘La Vida Es Una’] with the idea that I could play the songs live and people could really enjoy them. There are songs that pay homage to my Puerto Rican roots
