I don’t think I chose Mexican regional music, rather it chose me since I was a baby, because every time my mother Aida Coves she sang with mariachi, my spine was clearly marked on her belly and her skin was bristling. Something that didn’t happen in my siblings ’pregnancies,” said Valeria Cuevas, who debuted as a performer with the simple “The Betrayed.”
At the age of six he was already studying music, learned to play the piano and ukulele, however, he tried to change his destiny and studied fashion design, but once he finished his career he realized that really what she was passionate about was music, so with the support of the family, he began playing both instruments again and planning his career.
From last year she had ready the material with which she planned to go out, but when showing it to her brother Diego, he surprised it with the letter of “The betrayed ones”, which immediately conquered it to her and his mother, who is the producer of this first album that will have both unreleased tracks and covers.
“The record stays in the Mexican regional genre does not enter the ranch as such, but we wink at sounds from the north, we also have marimba and revelry. We are going through all, looking for current arrangements, to bring this traditional music to the new generations, ”he explained.
In addition to listening Aida Coves as a producer, she listens to her as her mother, who advises her to always be congruent with what she thinks and does, in that she respects the marachi’s costumes and the values with which she was educated.
Valeria made her debut as a conductor in “Everyone Wants Fame”, alongside Roger González, a pleasant experience that she would like to repeat one day, although she knows that for now her career as a singer.
