Julieta Venegas

When one encounters the music of Julieta Venegas, it is easy to feel that connection that arises from authenticity. Before launching her solo career, she was part of the band Tijuana No!, where she even co-wrote one of their most well-known songs, «Pobre de ti», alongside Álex Zúñiga. It was in 1996 when she decided to embark on her own path, moving to Mexico City with the support of Café Tacvba. Soon after, she signed with BMG/Ariola and released her first album, Here, in 1997, followed by Bueninvento in 2000. Both works, produced by Gustavo Santaolalla, resonated strongly in Mexico’s rock scene and spread across Latin America.

The album Yes, released in 2003, marked a turning point, giving her much greater visibility. Then, in 2006, came Limón y Sal, this time under the Sony & BMG label, which expanded her reach in Latin America and Europe, earning her several awards and platinum records. Her first MTV Unplugged, recorded in 2008, was a milestone that consolidated her internationally and introduced her to countries like Brazil, selling over 400,000 digital copies and 100,000 physical copies in Mexico alone.
