With tunes wise beyond his years, Ivan Cornejo is a high school dropout whose Spanish-language laments have drawn a fanbase of young people like him, and their parents, too.

The 20-year-old “Está Dañada” songwriter is another Mexican regional music artist selling out arenas across the U.S., and his turn in Tampa is a chance to not only get in touch with the lives of young people in places like Riverside, California but get a glimpse of a superstar who leaves teardrops on his guitar—and in his fans’ eyes, too.

Tickets to see Ivan Cornejo play Yuengling Center in Tampa on Friday, Aug. 16 are still available and start at $38.24.
