Recapture the moments influenced by Selena with songs like ¿Qué Creías? and other popular favorites. Remember the influence of Selena that captured generations and the fans that are in-spired by her even to this day. Tickets are on sale June 18th for both performances. Texas City, Texas native, Amanda Solis, has definitely, stayed true to her Tejano roots. She just dropped a video covering the late Tejano Queen herself, Selena Quintanilla, paying tribute to her song titled, "¿Qué Creías?", initially doing the video to enter the Madame Tussaud’s “Capture Your Selena Moment” contest becoming a finalist as the fan favorite securing her VIP rooftop viewing and unveil-ing of a Selena wax figure at Madame Tussaud’s Hollywood. Growing up in Texas City, Solis was introduced to her love for Tejano by her parents and her family, whether it be a cookout or family gathering, the Tejano music was definitely the soundtrack of her up-bringing. Unfortunately, Solis lost her parents at a young age, so when she saw Selena for the first time, premiering on TV, her resemblance to her and her mother was so shocking and looked so much like her mother, down to her style, that it inspired her even more to becoming a singer. “Not only is it a tribute to Selena, it’s a tribute to my mom,” said Solis, during an interview with Hou-ston’s, KHOU, channel 11, a CBS-affiliated television station. I don’t want to be Selena, I will never be able to replace Selena, there will never be another Selena. I’m here because I love Tejano music and she inspired me to become an artist of my own, to have a music career of my own. So, I want to make my own contribution to Tejano Music and any other style of mu-sic I can get into” she says. Amanda Solis gets a lot of people stopping her on a daily basis. No matter if she is in character or wearing her work clothes, people always say, 'do you know who you look like?' It almost feels like even if she hadn’t accidently started her career as a Selena tribute act she would have somehow always would have been compared to the Tejano Queen.
