CEG Latino

New York-based music marketing and booking agency Central Entertainment Group is expanding with the launch of a new Latin division, CEG Latino.

Latin industry veterans Johnny Falcones (New York-based) and Marcelino Ramos (Chicago) will head up the new division.

Previously, Falcones co-managed Marc Anthony at Ralph Mercado Management, and was the go-to agent for Celia Cruz.

Ramos, who worked almost 10 years at RMM and was the responsible agent for Tito Puente, will specialize in the areas of Latin jazz and tropical. He has already signed Dave Valetine, Giovanni Halvon and Hilton Ruiz.
