(b. 1937) Trini López III is a Mexican-American singer, songwriter, dancer, actor and musician whose folk-styled hits include "If I Had a Hammer," "Michael" and "Lemon Tree.” Lopez formed his first band in Wichita Falls, Texas, at the age of 15. In 1958, at the recommendation of Buddy Holly, Trini and his group "The Big Beats" went to producer Norman Petty who secured them to a contract with Columbia Records. His first big break came from Frank Sinatra, who recognized his talent and signed him to an eight-year-old contract with his label, Reprise Records. Inducted into the Las Vegas Casino Legends Hall of Fame in April, 2002, Trini was still recording and appearing live in recent years. He took part in a benefit concert to raise money for the victims of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami and has recently appeared as a guest performer in a number of shows held in Maastricht in the Netherlands with the Dutch violinist and composer André Rieu.
