Julieta Venegas

Julieta Venegas was born on November 24, 1970, in Long Beach, California, but grew up in Tijuana with her twin sister Yvonne. Her parents, both photographers, supported her since adolescence to study classical piano, violoncello, and music theory. At the age of 8, she already knew music was her calling. At that time, she composed with very diverse influences: Suzanne Vega, David Bowie, Prince, Charly García.Before launching her solo career, she played in the Mexican ska and reggae band Tijuana No!, where she wrote with Álex Zúñiga the most popular song of the group: Pobre de ti.

In 1996, she moved to Mexico City with the support of Café Tacvba and signed with BMG/Ariola. Thus came Aquí (1997) and Bueninvento (2000), both produced by Gustavo Santaolalla, with good reception among the rock audience of Mexico, Central America, and South America.Sí (2003) gave her more weight in the scene. Then came Limón y Sal (2006), already with Sony & BMG, and in 2008 she recorded her first live album: MTV Unplugged. With Sony Music she released Otra Cosa (2010), a more stripped-down and personal work that led her to perform on international stages.In 2013 she took a turn with Los Momentos, betting on indie and minimalism.
