Bio

Praised for her powerhouse vocals, Colombian-Kiwi singer-songwriter Manuela blends Spanish and English in her music to showcase elements from both sides of her unique cultural identity. Her music fuses the sounds of reggaeton, hip hop and RnB with the passion and drama of Latin American artists Mon Laferte and Kali Uchis. Bringing a truly honest and heart-felt performance that leaves audiences wanting more.

With her debut single Te Vas set for release late July, Manuela alongside her co-writer Luan have composed a dramatic and catchy reggae ton tune you’ll love. Te Vas was co-written and produced by the talented Luan (Chris Bates, Julia Walker). The track was mixed by Scott Seabright (Six60, Broods, Mumford and Sons) and mixed by Primal Mastering.

Manuela has been performing her original music in New Zealand for the last three years collecting a loyal fanbase and gaining support from New Zealand Media including 95BFM, 13th Floor and Muzic.net.nz. Constantly performing, Manuela completed a nation-wide tour earlier this year fronting the 9-piece funk group Big Tasty. Her eyes are now set on releasing a series of singles as a solo artist that show off her vocal abilities and explore life as a Colombian-New Zealander.
