Uli is short for Fernanada Ulibarri, who describes herself on Facebook as a chica who left home (Mexico City) to study Music in Boston. Like her Grammy-winning cousin, Rana Santacruz, she eventually transplanted to NYC to become a professional musician. There she joined forces with Los Gringos “where they earned their ‘street cred’ playing Nacotheque and packed Saturday nights at the Knitting Factory and Crash Mansion (NYC) before packing up and heading to the West Coast.” Upon arriving, Uli accompanied Julieta Venegas and her band and toured with her in Europe and Latin America. We now have the pleasure of hosting her in this City of Angels. Uli resides in Echo Park where she writes, performs music and explores the joys of acting. Listen to some of her tracks on her MySpace or SoundCloud (my favorite is “Sol”) and groove to this cool video recorded in New York, Mexico City, and Los Angeles.

In May he released his debut album Capullo, “a collection of beautifully crafted pop songs”,  and has toured throughout Mexico, as well as in the U.S. and Spain. Someone put the words Tom Waits vocals and driving force in the same sentence in regard to this artist, so check him out. Download “Tu fortuna” for FREE, or take a look at this sexy sounding and looking video, “Dónde va.” Oh yeah, and he sings en español and in English!
