ANGÉLICA RAHE (pronounced “ray”) has a musical journey that truly spans the globe. In 2018, she toured across the U.S., Europe and Latin America with Columbian-American R&B sensation Kali Uchis as her musical director, guitarist, and backup vocalist (including a North America run opening for Lana Del Rey) before offering the Love, Translated EP, a collection of four self-written songs including “Una Razón” and “Mundo Aparte” recorded in Austin, Texas, with Grammy Winning producer and musician Adrian Quesada of Black Pumas.
On Valentine’s Day 2020, Angélica gave the world her debut album, REINA, which speaks to her personal journey of reflection, rebirth and self-love. REINA, recorded across studios in Brooklyn, features Angélica on vocals and guitar with Cleon Edwards (Erykah Badu, Jill Scott) on drums, Jake Sherman (Nick Hakim) on keys, and Nick Clark (Kanye West, H.E.R.) on bass.
Born of a Spanish-musician father and theater-actress mother, Angélica split her childhood between Spain, Japan and landed in the U.S. as a young teenager, gaining the musical influences of Sade, Jorge Drexler, John Mayer and Erykah Badu along the way. While her early singles “Pa’lante” and “Extranjera” show an impressive range of vocal talent and songwriting abilities, it's the intimacy and sensuality in REINA that will have fans likening her to artists ranging from Sade to Solange. The album’s first singles, “Como Yo” featuring Dallas rapper Cure for Paranoia and “Templo” blur the lines between Spanish poetry, R&B and American neo-soul, a hint of what’s to come.
