Femina

(World Music Series)

  • Intro Text Fémina is a trio of female Patagonian singer songwriters, whose diverse songs are characterized by show-stopping harmonies and a magical on-stage chemistry reminiscent of Ibeyi mixed with smooth hip hop flow a la Anita Tijoux. Hailing from the tiny mountain town of San Martin de los Andes, Fémina are two sisters and their best childhood friend: Sofia “Toti” Trucco (vocals, guitar, ronroco), Clara “Wewi” Trucco (vocals, percussion) and Clara Miglioli (vocals, guitar). Their live shows are often theatrical in nature, and mix a variety of Latin genres such as cumbia, candombe, rumba, boleros, with international rhythms alike such as reggae and funk. A unique and thrilling combo, the trio has toured internationally in Mexico, Europe, released two albums and are currently working away at their third full length LP.
