Lucía

At just 23, Mexican vocalist Lucía Gutiérrez Rebolloso made history as the first Mexican finalist—and eventual winner—of the Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition. Her debut album, Lucía, is a luminous fusion of jazz and Latin American folk, weaving together bolero, son jarocho, and soulful standards. From tender ballads to vibrant rhythms, Lucía’s voice reflects deep roots and a fresh, global sensibility. With collaborators like Antonio Sánchez and Larry Grenadier, her music honors tradition while embracing a bold, cross-cultural future. This performance marks the arrival of a singular new voice in contemporary jazz.
