Inspired by her father Rey's courageous journey from Cuba to America and her brother Rey's childhood musical rivalry, Angie chose her stage name as a tribute to the two men who shaped her dreams. Her musical journey began early, leading to a breakthrough appearance on Telemundo's "La Voz Kids," where she reached the Top 18. This first-generation Cuban-American found her unique voice in country music, influenced by time spent on her grandparents' farm where she discovered the shared values of family, God, and love between her Latin heritage and country music. Now based in Nashville for the past two years, Angie has carved out her own path, performing several nights weekly on Broadway and opening for country stars such as Wynonna Judd, Scotty McCreery and Tanya Tucker, while infusing Latin energy into her country originals.
