Los Angeles, CA. (October 21, 2015)—After a successful second season and live-concert series, VidaLexus Presenta Té Para Tres con Pili Montilla will return to TV screens and VidaLexus.com for a third season. The show brings musicians and singers closer to fans through intimate conversations and behind-the-scenes footage.

VIDALEXUS Presenta: Té Para Tres con Pili Montilla, will air on Mega TV, owned by Spanish Broadcast System (SBS), the largest Hispanic-controlled public entertainment company in the United States. Season three episodes will begin airing on Saturday, October 24 at 9:00 PM EST/ 11:00 PM PST.

Created, produced and hosted by Emmy-nominated TV Host Pili Montilla and directed and edited by two-time Emmy-winning director Juan Agustín Márquez,“Té Para Tres” takes audiences through the struggles and triumphs of the lives of some of the hottest up-and-coming music artists, along with more established acts. Viewers get to experience exclusive places—like recording studios—obtain backstage access at concerts, and visit the homes of rising stars and award-winning artists like Julieta Venegas, No Te Va Gustar, Ximena Sariñana, Ozomatli, among many others.

“We’re thrilled to continue our partnership with Té Para Tres, now entering its third season,” said Brian Smith, Lexus vice president of marketing. “When we began working with Pili Montilla and Té Para Tres, we knew that the initiative aligned with our values of continuous improvement and the pursuit of perfection. It is really exciting to see people—including our customer base—heartily embrace the program and appreciate the behind-the-scenes look at some of the most important Latino emerging artists out there today.”

“As a producer, host and music lover, my mission with “Té Para Tres” is to create a platform where amazing alternative talent can showcase their music and share their story. Undoubtedly the show has become a space of discovery that expands our audiences’ musical palate. Here at our production company—Té Para Tres Studios—we are thrilled to share our vision with the Lexus community and alongside these Latino musicians, embark on a musical journey to perfection,” said Montilla. “Lexus’ commitment to the Hispanic community perfectly aligns with ours, and this partnership to help give more exposure to our emergent músicos proves it. Plus VidaLexus.com and the Vida Lexus Presenta events have a cultural connection that clearly aligns with the luxury lifestyles that exist for Hispanics in the USA.”

The partnership will also bring the show’s concept on the road, with four live, intimate concerts featuring an artist profiled on the show. The tour will stop in four major Hispanic Markets, New York, Dallas, Chicago and Los Angeles.
