Francisca Valenzuela: Singer-Songwriter in New York

About Francisca Valenzuela

Francisca Valenzuela is a Chilean American singer, poet, and multi-instrumentalist whose work moves between pop structure and Latin rock edge. Raised in San Francisco and later based in Santiago, she first built a following in Chile and across Latin America with albums including *Muérdete La Lengua* and *Buen Soldado*. She later released *Tajo Abierto* on her own Frantastic label, drawing a Latin Grammy nomination, and continued with Sony Music Chile on *La Fortaleza* and *Vida tan Bonita*. Onstage, including at New York City’s National Sawdust, her performances favor clarity over spectacle.
