Havana-born singer, songwriter, percussionist, bandleader and positive force of nature, Brenda Navarrete grew up steeped in the sounds of Afro-Cuban rhythms and Latin jazz, as well as classic voices like Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan, setting her sights on a musical career at an early age. Graduating from the Amadeo Roldán Music Conservatory in 2009, she first gained attention as a percussionist with Afro-Cuban percussion troupe, Obini Bata, before joining the internationally renowned Interactivo project of Roberto Carcassés, as a singer. In 2017 she played and sang on pianist Hilario Duran's album, Contumbao, for Toronto-based label Alma Records, who then commissioned her own album, Mi Mundo, in 2018: an aptly titled mix of her eclectic influences featuring an all-star cast of Cuban instrumentalists, including legendary bassist Alain Perez and master drummer Horacio ‘El Negro’ Hernandez.
