The album Orquídeas is inspired by the orchid flower, the national flower of Colombia that celebrates her hispanic roots. Colombia is known to have the most species of orchids on the planet. She said “I always felt intrigued and magnetized by the flower.” she then continued, “This album is inspired by the timeless, eerie, mystic, striking, graceful and sensual allure of the orchid.” She also says she wants to “redefine the way we look at Latinas in music.” in a sense of “vast scope of fresh energy” which tour attendees of her Red Moon In Venus Tour have had the privilege to hear some unreleased songs while she performed them on stage.
