Rosalita’s journey in music has seen him win multiple talent shows in Abu Dhabi and globally. His cover of “All by Myself” during the AGT audition even earned him praise from Celine Dion on Twitter. A student at Richmindale School in Abu Dhabi, Rosalita first rose to fame when his AGT audition video was uploaded on YouTube.
Post-AGT, Rosalita has performed at various venues across the UAE, including TunesDXB, a free public concert during last year’s Dubai Shopping Festival.
