Primera Fila: Sasha Benny Erik (English: Front row: Sasha Benny Erik) is the first album by Mexican pop trio Sasha, Benny y Erik released on November 6, 2012 by Sony Music Latin. The live recording was taken from the concert performed in June 2012, and it includes two new songs "Cada Beso" (first single) and "Sólo Tú", three hits from each one, and two cover versions of Presuntos Implicados and Fito Paez

The idea of joining the talents of three friends was suggested by themselves and the recording suggested them to make a "Primera Fila" concept recording with hits from each one. So nine songs are from solo hits from Sasha Sokol ("Serás el Aire", "No Me Extraña Nada", "Rueda Mi Mente"), Benny Ibarra ("Sin Ti", "Cielo", "Tonto Corazon") and Erik Rubin ("Dame Amor", "Cuando Mueres por Alguien", "Tu Voz"). They added two new songs, first single "Cada Beso" and "Sólo Tú", and two versions of "Como Hemos Cambiado" and "El Amor Después del Amor".

The lead single from Primera Fila: Sasha Benny Erik, "Cada Beso", was released digitally on August 28, 2012. The song peaked at the first position in Mexico's airplay chart and in iTunes Mexico, remaining for many weeks within the top 5 positions and becoming a huge radio hit. Before the album release some tracks were digitally released, including "Serás el Aire", "Cuando Mueres por Alguien" and "Tonto Corazon", but none was an official single. In 2013, "Sin Ti" was released as second single of the album."Como Hemos Cambiado" was chosen as third airplay single.

The tour started in October 2012 and has continued through 2013 inside Mexico. In February they performed three shows at Teatro Metropólitan", and they opened a date in the National Auditorium by April, but due to the success they had to add a second date the next day.
