Haila y su Orquesta

She is one of the most important representatives of the new era of Cuban music.

Dubbed “La Cubanísima” or “la diva de Cuba” by all her disciples, Haila was born on 28 January 1974 and is considered one of the finest female voices of her generation. A highly versatile artist, able to dance, play and sing. She shows masterful command in interpreting different styles, with a very powerful voice and, above all, a tone so distinctive that it identifies her after just a few bars. More than twenty-five years of professional experience in national and international settings. Ten solo albums and more than a hundred collaborations with national and international artists. Several tracks on film soundtracks.

She has been part of projects such as Septeto Tradición, the group Habana Son, the group Bamboleo and the Azúcar Negra Orchestra. She has also been a guest artist on projects such as “Deep Rumba”, “Cuban Grammys”, “Tropicana de Cuba”, “Tropicana de Tenerife, Spain”, “Cubanismo” and the Buena Vista Social Club project. In 2001 she began her solo career. In 2003 she founded her own orchestra.

She has won numerous awards on many occasions, notably the “Premio Cubadisco”, the premio Entre tú y yo, the Premios Lucas, radio and TV popularity awards and the Premios Artes de la Excelencia. She has received several international awards for her various collaborations, including a nomination and a Latin Grammy Award for her collaboration on the CD “La Rumba soy yo” in 2001, in the Best Folk Album category, performing the song “Sobre una tumba una rumba”.
