Background notes
Archive material and source history
Laritza Bacallao started singing in Havana, where she grew up surrounded by Cuban music. She sang in local choirs and cultural centers before joining Los Van Van as a backup singer in her teens. In 1996, she went solo with her debut album 'Libre,' mixing traditional Cuban rhythms with more contemporary sounds.
Her 2003 single 'Avariciosa' became her most recognizable song, with lyrics that pushed back against how women are often portrayed. Other tracks like 'Carnaval' and 'Que Hablen' kept her sound rooted in Cuban rhythms while letting her voice carry the emotion. She toured through Latin America and Europe, building a following with live shows that matched the energy of her recordings.
Bacallao has been vocal about women's rights in her music and public statements, which hasn't always been comfortable for everyone. She kept recording songs like 'Enamórate de Otra' and 'Estres (Solo Se Vive Una Vez),' staying close to the Cuban musical traditions she came up with.
