Sílvia Pérez Cruz (Palafrugell, 1983) is a singer, composer, and performer widely regarded as one of the most powerful and distinctive voices on the contemporary European music scene. Trained in classical music, jazz, and traditional folk, she has developed a unique artistic language that blends flamenco, songwriting, folk, and Mediterranean music, defined by a strong artistic identity and an exceptional interpretative ability.
After studying at ESMUC, where she graduated in jazz singing, she began her career as a member of the group Las Migas before establishing herself as a solo artist with the album 11 de novembre (2012), which was acclaimed by both audiences and critics.
Throughout her career, she has collaborated with internationally renowned artists such as Gino Paoli, Stefano Bollani, Tosca, Lluís Homar, Rocío Molina, Jorge Drexler, Hamilton de Holanda, Toquinho, Natalia Lafourcade, Lila Downs, Liniker, Maria Gadú, Liliana Herrero, Joan Manuel Serrat, and Lluís Llach, among others, and has also worked extensively in theatre and film as both performer and composer.
She has received major awards, including two Goya Awards for Best Original Song and the Premio Nacional de las Músicas Actuales in 2022, which recognizes her outstanding artistic contribution and versatility.
Sílvia Pérez Cruz returns with a new album, scheduled for release on April 17, preceded by the two already released singles, Moreno and Líquido.
“From table to glass
From wood to metal
From collective song
To introspective song
From the depths of the seas to celestial dreams
From suns and mothers to abyssal oceans”
Sílvia has new original songs to share, with familiar sounds and new horizons, new forms. Since she knew she would sing at the dreamed-of Olympia de París, her imagination has not stopped generating sounds and images. What is proposed here is a change of state. As song does, as the river does, as water does.
