Juanita sings her own songs and original compositions from her fellow musicians. You will also find in her covers a unique rendition of well known songs and old re-dicoveries. She writes her own texts and music, and has also written text for other composers among them Julian Gretschel and Peter Schwarzt. A fan of vocal improvisation, Juanita is constantly exploring paths to create and communicate.
Her music is real, unedited, making her live sound and the studio sound very close to each other. Her portfolio is of great diversity, offering a range from fast-paced dancing music to more nostalgic slow tunes. This gives her flexibility also as performer, for different audiences and different ocassions.
You will find her on stage in different formations: single, duo or with her own Band, Juanita LalÓ & Friends. This Ensemble of 7 amazing musicians is her favourite environment and is the best sound for her music. The current crew includes Daigo Nakai on bass, Shinichi Nakajima on drums, Oliver Lepinat on piano, Marcel Donoso on percussion, Nils Marquardt on the trombone and Peter -Don Pedro- Schwarzt on the trumpet.
She has collaborated with many different ensembles among them The Flintsones Big Band, Riff and La Caravana Mestiza, and is a supporter of the Kreuzberger Musikalische Aktion e.V.
Music is the hope, the way out, the way in. Is an adventure where the artist shares her soul and the listener comes along, and shares back without knowing.
