TLI Jazz: Lucía
Lucía is a 23-year-old vocalist from Veracruz, México, whose singular artistic vision bridges the gaps between Jazz, Latin, and Pop music
Lucía Gutierrez Rebolloso started her musical career at the age of two, singing and dancing in her parents’ son jarocho band, “Son de Madera.” She began studying voice at the age of 13 at Universidad Veracruzana, and, in 2022, received a bachelor’s degree in jazz studies. Also in 2022, she became the first artist from Mexico to enter the Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition, which she won. Her soulful, multicultural rendition of “What a Difference a Day Makes,” is now the opening cut of Lucía, an exquisite debut album that showcases the luminous qualities of her voice, and her superb technique and versatility.
