Experience Candelaria

Candelaria, born Candelaria Rivera in 1978, is a highly respected Cuban-American singer-songwriter and percussionist renowned for her deeply rooted Afro-Cuban musicality. Emerging from the vibrant Miami music scene, she initially gained prominence as a member of the Grammy-nominated group Yerba Buena in the early 2000s, contributing vocals and percussion to their innovative blend of Cuban son, rumba, and electronic music.

Following Yerba Buena’s hiatus, Candelaria launched a successful solo career marked by albums like *Fe Buena* (2007) and *Say Si Si* (2013). Her style is characterized by soulful vocals delivered in Spanish and English, layered over intricate percussion arrangements – showcasing her mastery of the congas, bongos, and other Afro-Cuban instruments. She frequently incorporates elements of jazz, funk, and soul into her sound.

Candelaria has collaborated with artists including Lila Downs and Ozomatli and continues to tour internationally. Beyond performance, she's an educator committed to preserving and promoting Afro-Cuban rhythms through workshops and masterclasses.
