Julieta Laso
Argentine singer and actress
In 2010, she released her first solo album, Tango Rante, in which she performed tango and milonga classics with a guitar trio. Between 2013 and 2018 she was the singer of the Fernández Fierro Orchestra, a benchmark of the new Argentine tango. Her second solo album, Martingala (released in 2018), earned her a nomination for the Gardel Awards as Best Female Tango Singer. Her third album, La Caldera (2021), was received with rave reviews.
Recently, she has presented her fourth solo album, Cabeza Negra (2021), a conceptual work which, due to the complexity of the interpretation, repertoire and instrumentation, inaugurates a new musical genre in which copla and tango coexist. The same year, she debuted as a leading actress on the big screen in Terminal Norte (2021), the latest documentary by filmmaker Lucrecia Martel.
