A trans woman singer-songwriter, actress, and communicator from Mexico City, Luisa blends folk, grunge, and shoegaze with visceral lyrics about identity, love, and resistance. With two acclaimed albums — Mataronomatar and Weyes — she has captivated audiences both nationally and internationally, earning recognition from outlets like Rolling Stone, Vice, and KEXP. Her latest release, Weyes (2024), cements her status as a fierce storyteller of the trans experience, delivered through an intimate, raw, and deeply emotional sound. She has collaborated on projects such as Damon Albarn’s Africa Express and performed at high-profile festivals like Bahidorá.
Her image has appeared in global campaigns including Spotify’s GLOW (Times Square) and Apple Music’s Up Next Latam. With a voice that challenges and a message that demands to be heard, Luisa Almaguer doesn’t just sing — she transforms, provokes, and moves.
