Christian De Mesones - Big Tall Wish (Radio Edit Instrumental)

2021 was a Breakout year for Christian de Mesones.  Releasing his debut album "They call me Big New York, which yielded two top 20 Mediabase singles and a #1 international hit "Latin Jive Redux ".
Then in November of 2021 Hispanica featuring Bob James tops the Billboard charts.
Christian de Mesones aka "Big New York "wowed audiences with his very specific personal vision. Said de Mesones, when asked about that vision, "Everyone gets a spotlight in this band.  I like to create excitement sonically, and that means mixing it up, so the listening audience can get its money's worth."  Big New York Shows featured a solid group of regulars and rotated a stellar line-up of some of the best talent in Smooth Jazz.  Regular lineups included Elliot Levine, Mike Gamble, Carl Anderson, Rob Maletick, Nia Simmons, and Eddie Baccus Jr.
Coming full circle, Christian has returned to his roots, focusing on the deeply personal Latin, funk, and rock influences that shaped his love for musical composition.  He spent 2018 performing locally and composing and recording additional material to round out his long-awaited, debut solo release, “They Call Me Big New York”.  Christian has been independently releasing singles since 2015, beginning with “Good Old Days”.  “Latin Jive Redux”, a 2017 remix of the Groove Skool song “Latin Jive”, went to #55 on Billboard and #1 in the UK. It remained in the top 10 for over a year on both the Moth FM/UK and 96.8 the Oasis in the USA. His 2018 release “Spirit” climbed up to #12 with a bullet on the Smooth Jazz Media Base chart and fueled his desire to present this and other material as an album.  Christian’s musical evolution was on full display as he made his solo debut to a sold-out crowd at Blues Alley in July 2019, celebrating the upcoming release of "They Call Me Big New York". “Throb!”, a local fan favorite from the album, was released as a single in 2019, and 2020 began with the release of “Big Tall Wish”, which quickly climbed  the charts and paved the way for the release of the full album, available now.
