Javiera Mena

Biography

Chilean singer and songwriter Javiera Mena, born in Santiago on 3 June 1983, is one of Latin America's leading electropop artists. She emerged from the Santiago indie scene in the early 2000s, moving from acoustic songs accompanied by guitar to a synthesizer based sound on her debut album 'Esquemas Juveniles' (2006). 'Mena' (2010) and 'Otra Era' (2014) made her a fixture across the Spanish speaking world, and she has since released 'Nocturna' (2022) and 'Inmersión' (2025) from her base in Madrid, writing, singing and producing in Spanish.
