Since 1972, David Hernandez has delighted audiences and invited them into the inkwell of his fiery imagination.

Street Sounds is Chicago?s premier poetry/music group that combines a sweet blend of salsa, blues, rock and jozz that weaves a trail from the dirt roads of Cidra, Puerto Rico to the neon streets of Chicago. Known for his cunning urban poetry, imagery and biting wit Hernandez has published several books of poetry; among them, Roof Top Piper (Tia Chucha Press) and Elvis is Dead but at Least He?s not Gaining any more Weight.
