Bio and Introduction


Recently listed on the Billboard Charts top 80 artists to watch in 2024, this presentation will be the latest collection of Lyric Fusion Poetry compositions as well as fresh arrangements of standard jazz funk from Lady Zen performed in a decade.


This new album was presented for the first time at the Queretaro Jazz Festival on July 7, 2024 at the Plazuela Mariano de las Casas with hundreds of fans filling the center square of this iconic city.


‘...This is a collection of original arrangements and new compositions of Post Urban Jazz Music which is a reflection of the intellectual wave of modern, hip, abstract jazz coming out of Mexico. It is a mix of poetry, hip hop, classic house and jazz mixed with ancestral beats. Urban Jazz is best described as more pocket-oriented and backbeat-driven genre but is technically more diverse like traditional jazz music fusing with the grooves found in the disciplines of funk and hip hop backed with the power of rock, soul, and rhythm and blues…’
