A.B. Quintanilla is a songwriter, record producer, and musician. Born on December 13, 1963, as Abraham Isaac Quintanilla III, he rose to prominence in the 1980s when he joined the Tejano band Selena y Los Dinos (as a bass guitarist) along with his sisters Suzette Quintanilla and Selena, the Queen of Tejano music. Like his siblings, Quintanilla was also raised as Jehovah’s Witness by his parents Abraham Quintanilla and Marcella Samora. As a young adult, he faced financial problems as his father’s restaurant closed down due to the recession of the early 80s. However, the troubles lasted just a few years as the band soon started gaining fans, and it became pretty popular.

That was just the beginning of a long and illustrious career for A.B. Quintanilla, who went on to win the Latin Grammy Awards, Latin Billboard Music Awards, and Premio Lo Nuestro. He was married and divorced four times before he tied the knot with Anjelah Quintanilla in September of 2019. His career so far has been inspiring, and he has found success in every field that he has worked in. His hard work has helped him earn an impressive net worth but let’s look at his career so far before we get to that.

The third band formed by A.B. Quintanilla is known as Elektro Kumbia, and its debut album was released back in 2017. Apart from being actively involved in his own musical ventures, he is engaged with Q-Productions, his family’s music production company.
