About Me

Rennea is a Venezuelan vocalist whose art consists in creating unique musical mix with poly-rhythms, stories and melodies. Each performance space and their public are introduced to thoughtful and creative explorations of Venezuelan, Caribbean, Latin American, African and Spanish music. Interactions with the musicians happen in the moment. There is freshness in each performance: jazz and improvisation. A lifestyle of design, dancing, motherhood, teaching and traveling links her to a diverse world. In music, whether it is a tango, a joropo, a cante flamenco, a ranchera, a bossanova or a lullaby, she finds the life and the story of each piece, pulls it out, and infuses her own self into the mix. She’s working on her first CD/Book.
