    "bio_short": "Ritchie Valens (born Richard Steven Valenzuela; on 13 May 1941 in Pacoima, California, USA  – February 3, 1959) was a Mexican American singer, songwriter and guitarist.  A Rock and Roll pioneer and a forefather of the Chicano rock movement, Valens' recording career lasted only eight months. During this time, however, he scored several hits, most notably "La Bamba", which was originally a Mexican folk song that Valens transformed with a rock rhythm and beat that became a hit in 1958, making Valens a pioneer of the Spanish-speaking rock and roll movement.
