1)Salvador is a Christian band that blends their Latin heritage and contemporary pop songwriting. The band formed in 1999 in Austin, Texas.
Over the past 10 years in which Salvador has toured throughout the country and at times outside of it, a fan base began to rapidly grow. According to the members of the group, no matter how huge the fan base gets, they are still surprised and grateful to be a part of that environment, and even more surprising to them is that their fans keep coming and supporting.
Not only has growth been among the fans, but also within the group as well. Adding to the existing members of Nic Gonzales (lead vocals and guitar), his cousin Josh Gonzales (bass and background vocals), Chris Bevins (co-producer and keyboards), and Jared Solis (trombone and saxophone), the band completes its family with brass man Edwin Santiago (trumpet and flugelhorn), Ben Cordonero (drummer) and Robert Vilera (percussionist) . Nic Gonzales calls the three men Salvador’s “valuable acquisitions.” Cordonero, a Nicaraguan from Miami, not only plays the drums but also traditional Latin percussion such as congas, timbales and bongos. Santiago is a Boricua – of Puerto Rican decent -who brings not only amazing talent but an unending work ethic as well. And Vilera, an established session player who’s worked with Marc Anthony, Gloria Estefan and Celia Cruz (to name a few) also brings more of the sonido Latina to the music and, ultimately, their fan base.
What is it that sets this record apart from other Christian albums and even Salvador’s previous ones? Three words: horns and percussion. According to the producers of album 'Dismiss the Mystery', there is a greater reliance on horns and percussion to take an already existing tapestry of excellent vocals, rhythm and strings, to a higher level of excellence creating nuances and gravitas that exudes a timeless capability.
Regarding the future of Salvador’s ability to keep creating in the face of growth, change and an unstable marketplace, one thing is for certain: after seven years of hard work culminating with Dismiss the Mystery, it is impossible to dismiss their undeniable musicianship, and the only mystery left at this point is what can they possibly do next to top it.

Who You Really Are
Salvador Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Story has been told through the days of old and I have known you.
Just when I think I can't know you more you open my eyes wider than before.
And somehow you draw me, draw me in closer, closer and closer to who you really are.
And I fall over and over, all over and over in love again with who you really are.
Redeemer of my soul, giver of all hope, I have known you.
Just when I think I can't love you more you open my eyes wider than before.
You are more than I can comprehend, more than I'll ever understand.
Every little glimpse of you I'll fall over in love again.
You are more than I can comprehend, more than I'll ever understand.
With every little glimpse of you I'll fall over in love again.
Over and over with who you really are.
And I'll fall over and over, all over in love again with who you really are.
With who you really are.
The lyrics of Salvador’s “Who You Really Are” express the idea that the singer wants to deepen their relationship with God by discovering more about His nature and personality. The first verse references God in the Old Testament (God of Abraham) and in the New Testament (lion and the lamb). The singer then acknowledges that God has revealed Himself throughout history and that they have personally experienced His presence. However, the singer also recognizes that there is always more to learn about God and that He continually reveals Himself in new ways.
The chorus emphasizes the singer’s desire to draw closer to God and their experience of falling in love with Him over and over again. The second verse describes God as both a redeemer and a giver of hope, but also as a God of justice who is always progressing. The singer again expresses their awe and wonder at God’s infinite nature, and how even a glimpse of Him can cause them to fall more deeply in love.
Overall, Salvador’s “Who You Really Are” is a heartfelt tribute to God’s vastness and complexity, as well as an acknowledgement of the singer’s own longing to know Him more deeply.
