The premier of "Little Girl Lost - The Delimar Vera Story" was held on Thursday, August 7th at the swanky Director's Guild of America (DGA) Theater located at 7920 Sunset Blvd in Hollywood, California. Directed by Paul Kaufman for the Lifetime Movie Network, the music of several LPM artists was featured throughout the film. Little Girl Lost is the true story of a woman, Luz Cuevas, who believed her infant daughter had perished in a fire, only to find her 6 years later living with another family.

Little Girl Lost, set in Philadelphia and starring what is clearly a family with strong Puertorican heritage, features music from LPM artists like Braily Ramos, PR based salsero Rigoberto Rodrígiez, Spain based rapper Alberto GV, trumpeter Marina Garza, Cuban tresero Heriberto "Tito" González, Issac's Delgado's current bassist Yorgis Goiricelaya and TIMBA.com's own Kevin Moore with Orquesta Gitano. The songs are heard during festive party scenes and in the background as radio tracks. Check out our tropical music licensing compilations , Vol-1 & Vol-2, for more info. Interestingly enough the main star, Judy Reyes (cast as Luz Cuevas), is from the Dominican Republic (Santo Domingo). >>>> read more...
