History

==== **//We all may know him as Bruno Mars. But he was actually born as Peter Gene Hernandez, on October 8, 1985 in Hawaii. He was raised by a family of musicians. As a young child, Bruno was influenced by Michael Jackson, and Elvis Presley. During his younger years, he performed in many venues around his home. But he knew he wanted to make his talents known. So after graduating high school, he moved to Los Angeles, California. Once he got to L.A, he began producing songs for other artists. After an unsuccessful start with Motown Records, Bruno Mars signed with Atlantic Records in 2009. Soon Bruno Mars was featured with B.o.B and Travie McCoy in the songs we all know as Billionaire, and Nothin' on You. But soon released some songs of his own. In 2010, Bruno Mars won an award for "Best song of the year" for his song "Nothin' on You," and another for "Best male pop vocal performance" for his song "Just the way you are" in 2011. //** ====
