Born in Monterrey, Mexico, but raised in San Antonio, Texas, Mariangela’s music reflects her bicultural influences, which include Julieta Venegas, Soda Stereo’s Gustavo Cerati, Alejandro Sanz, New Order, and Lana Del Rey. Her songs, like “Luz Azul” and “Soñarte,” embody pop-rock punch en español. Mariangela received cosigns from two of her idols, Carla Morrison and Kany García, when she opened for their concerts in Texas.
