Lucía

Three years ago, 23-year-old Lucía became the first Mexican finalist—and winner—of the Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition. Her standout performance of “What a Difference a Day Makes,” blending English jazz, Spanish bolero, and zapateado dance, introduced her distinctive style.

Born in Veracruz to musicians in the son jarocho scene, Lucía grew up immersed in Latin folk and jazz. With a degree in Jazz Studies and touring experience with Natalia Lafourcade, she’s launching a 2025 tour across Europe and the Americas. Blending jazz with her cultural heritage, Lucía says, “I wanted to create a sound that truly reflects who I am.”
