Mexican singer Pepe Aguilar announces April 17 concert at Save Mart Center

Latin music star Pepe Aguilar has announced an April 17 concert date at Fresno’s Save Mart Center — adding to the list of big-draw artists and events already scheduled to play the arena in 2016.

Tickets for the show go on sale at 2 p.m. Friday at select Save Mart supermarkets, online at www.ticketmaster.com, by phone at 800-745-3000 or at the Save Mart Center box office. Prices range from $39 to $125.

Aguilar is the Grammy-winning son of Mexican icons Antonio Aguilar and Flor Silvestre. He began performing at age 3 and sang at Madison Square Garden when he was 5. During a career that spans 16 studio albums, the singer’s music has ranged from regional rancheras, banda music and cumbia to fusion rock and pop.

His latest work, “Pepe Aguilar: MTV Unplugged,” was in the Top 10 on Billboard’s Latin album charts in 2014 and was nominated for a Latin Grammy for album of the year.

Aguilar came through Fresno in 2009, playing Selland Arena on a double bill with Marco Antonio Solis.
