At 19, Colombian singer-songwriter VALÉ is a living X-ray of everything it means to be young, talented and Latina in 2021: obsessed with music and popular culture, capable of spontaneously alternating between Afro-Caribbean loops and the American mainstream.

She is a cosmopolitan artist, but blessed with a raw sincerity that is revealed at all times in her songs and in dealing with fans. Read more on Last.fm.
