MEXICO CITY – She did it! Lea Garza has won the “Revelación Femenina 2021 en Pop-Rock en Español e Inglés” (Revelation Female 2021 in Pop-Rock in Spanish and English) category at the Palmas de Oro awards in Mexico.

Lea, 13 years old, received the award from the National Circle of Journalists of Mexico, who recognise top talents of Mexican culture. It’s a prestigious prize for national and international artists: in the past, awards at this event have been given to Andrea Bocelli and Sophia Loren. “I feel super excited to have received this award, it is truly a great honor!!! It doesn’t seem real to me yet!!!”, Lea said to us.

This new important recognition for the young Italian-Mexican singer arrived after she won, in recent months, two awards out of eight at the “Yesports” International Music Awards organized in China (read the article here). 

Lea lives in Mexico since the age of 9 (she was born in Miami) with her mother Giulia Nenci, from Tuscany, psychobiomusic therapist, and his father Javier Garza, Mexican, internationally renowned sound engineer and son of the great Mexican musician Xavier Garza from the famous band Los Locos del Ritmo (read her story here).

Her talent already emerged on other occasions that led her to start a series of collaborations such as the one with Juan Pablo Manzanero in “Vivo per lei” which is in rotation on Spotify (listen here: “Vivo per lei”). Now, for her, another goal: to sing with Andrea Bocelli who will be in Miami on February 14, 2022: it could be an occasion since some of Lea’s family members live right there. Finger crossed!
