Биография

In her own words: "Music is really in my blood. I was born in Colombia into a musical family and grew up working for a living since the age of three or four— singing. We were always traveling and performing, like gypsies, living from our van or trailer, chasing dreams and seeing the world. It seems romantic, and it was, sometimes, but it was a very unusual childhood. Music was my escape. So, I toured the world with my sisters. We played in over twenty countries. When you hear about how Quincy Jones mastered all the musical forms to become a giant producer – jazz, orchestra, big band, samba, pop – I was exposed to all that from a very young age. And to this day you’ll hear me sing in 6, 7 languages during a show. I played with Eden’s Crush, *NSync … and other giant acts and from them, I learned how to put on a good show. So many details— costumes, choreography, how to tease a crowd, the set changes, the makeup, the choice of venue, choosing the repertoire. My act draws from all these inspirations, old and new, it’s sort of a tour of my musical inspirations. The sounds or songs can be vintage but they’re never nostalgic. They’re personal. This is my story. But it’s the story of the world. It’s a journey through space and time through a voice, a drum beat, a twirl of a hand, the trill of a trumpet, or cry of a gaita*. And above all, it’s a journey of love for all that mankind has to offer in this electrifying art form that is music. It is its own language."
