El Caplan is a Los Angeles-born singer/songwriter and producer known for his rich, baritone voice and reverb-soaked western guitars. Blending Americana, old-school rock & roll, and Latin alternative, his sound reflects his roots with an American session musician father and a Mexican mother from the narco-run Culiacán, Sinaloa. A seasoned studio veteran, El Caplan has worked as a session musician and producer for artists like Dr. Dre, J. Cole, and Anderson .Paak before stepping into the spotlight as a solo artist.

His debut EP, Our Lady, the Queen of Angels, co-produced by Grammy-winning producer Eddie Spear (Zach Bryan, Sierra Ferrell), blended Americana and retro indie rock with cinematic storytelling. Each track painted a vivid portrait of love, loss, fame, and self-destruction, filled with neon lights, desert highways, and the ghosts of the past. Alongside the EP, his Latin classic covers of Selena's "Como La Flor" and Los Ángeles Negros' "Y Volveré" earned spots on Spotify's New Music Friday Latin, showcasing his ability to honor tradition while adding a modern twist.

His single “The Promised Land” is the newest release from his upcoming EP, Cradle to the Grave. Written after a solo hike in the Southern California mountains, the song is a search for meaning and redemption through music, turning struggle into perseverance and hope. For fans of Colter Wall, Sturgill Simpson, and Orville Peck.

He celebrated the release of Our Lady, the Queen of Angels with a sold-out headlining show at Permanent Records Roadhouse, featuring Nathan Jacques and Los Caramelos. He later opened for Jonny Fritz and Andrew Sa at the Lodge Room on August 22 and will perform at the Bilingual Sounds “Heritage Night” showcase, presented by 88.5 The SoCal Sound at the Paramount on October 3.
