About Alex Boutique and Los Reyes Del Mambo

Born on October 15, 1967, in Villa Francisca, National District, Dominican Republic, Francisco Blanco’s journey into the world of Carnival began early. Inspired by family tradition, Alex’s passion was ignited by the “Diablos Cojuelos” costumes worn by his father and brother. By 1990, he was a standout in the “Los Principles” troupe, and shortly after, he formed his iconic troupe, “Los Kentos.”

Over the years, Alex Boutique has created a legacy of innovative and visually spectacular troupes, such as “Colorido del Carnaval,” “Los Piratas,” and “Fantasía Africana,” each bringing something unique to the National District’s carnival celebrations.

In 2000, Alex Boutique’s influence extended to music, contributing nine tracks to a landmark carnival music production under the guidance of musical director Luis Reyes. With songs like “Mambo Alibaba,” “El Celular,” and “Dame Luz,” Alex Boutique solidified his place as the pioneer of Alibaba rhythms in carnival music, capturing the hearts of listeners with his vibrant and rhythmic style.
