lusillón
Madrid born & raised, bedroom pop’s newest darling, lusillón, is making waves in the scene for her intimate music. Her 2023 album, ‘Pensando mucho y mal’ is a beautiful journey that you can feel in your bones. She has just released a new single in collaboration with Ona Mafalda and is surely one to watch in the scene.
Girl Ultra
One of the best up & coming R&B singers, Girl Ultra, has been giving us the most beautifully sung, romantic music for a few years now. Touted as Mexico’s ‘Drake’, she uses her Girl Ultra persona to become an extroverted, loud singer - and it works. With a voice that feels like an opera singer, and classic R&B that makes you feel good about yourself, she is ON our artists to watch.
BECCA
Los Angeles born & bred, BECCA, uses her Salvadoran roots to bring a lite hyper-pop quality to the music scene. Not only an established artist, she also is highly involved in the film & media industry, using her voice to uplift other artists and allowing them to tell their stories. With her recent single, “Twisted Reality”, BECCA is officially on her healing journey, allowing listeners to dive deep into her feelings with her.
Y La Bamba
Queer, Mexican-American artist, Y La Bamba, should always be on your radar, as they released their 7th album this year! The Latin folk group continues to push boundaries with their music, weaving through English and Spanish in a psychedelic trip that feels so safe and comforting. Luz Elena Mendoza Ramos has such a uniquely powerful voice without being loud. There’s intention behind every note and it truly creates such a beautiful sound.
Lilly Yan
Melodic and heavenly is really the only way to describe Honduran-American artist, Lilly Yan’s music. A blend of indie pop and R&B, Yan’s voice will lull you into a meditative state that brings peace to the listener. Intertwining throughout her music are disco and funk influences that will have your ear needing more, but we have to wait. With only singles out, let’s cross our fingers we get an EP or album soon.
