Nella

Born in Venezuela, Nella skyrocketed to international renown fueled by her powerhouse voice and undeniable presence. In a short time, she went from Berklee College of Music graduate to winner of the 2019 Latin GRAMMY® Award for Best New Artist. That same year, her full-length debut, Voy (I Go) received acclaim from NPR and yielded the hit “Me Llaman Nella” (They Call Me Nella). In addition, the title track was named the 14th best song of 2019, in any genre, by the New York Times.  

Merging the folklore roots of Venezuela, modern production, and Andalusian inspirations, Nella’s sound resounds in every corner of the globe. Not only has she packed venues throughout the United States, Venezuela, Mexico, Spain, and the UK, but she has also accompanied a number of top artists like Alejandro Sanz and Jennifer López, and landed a debut film performance alongside Asghar Farhadi, Javier Bardem, Penélope Cruz, and more in 2018’s Everybody Knows.
