A rather new face in the musical landscape, but with a huge latin fanbase that counts over 800 000 followers on social media, Oana mixes pop, trap and latino creating her own unique sound along the way.
Oana moved to Spain when she was only 13 years old. In order to help her family, she started working from an early age, while finishing up highschool and discovering her passion for music along the way. Her first taste of “fame” came when she was 18, after being noticed by a casting agent and offered a model job in a music video. During a trip in Ecuador, her beauty drew the attention of a national television channel that signed her right away. Her one of a kind look conquered both Ecuador and Latin America, where she was part of TV Shows such as “Combate”, “Atrevidos” and “Soy el Mejor VIP”, helping her amass a following of almost 1 million people.
Deciding to put her TV career on hold for her true passion – music – Oana moved back to Spain and reached out to the Grammy-nominated producer Costi. Their musical chemistry gave birth to her debut single "Duro", released in May to an overall positive reception from the music industry both in Romania and Latin America. The song debuted at #2 in the iTunes Ecuador Chart, while also being included in Spotify’s most followed playlists in Latin America: New Music Friday Latin America, Viral Chart Ecuador, Viral Chart Argentina, Pachangueo & Nuevo Flow. The song also peaked inside the Top 50 Shazam charts in both Romania and Ecuador.
“Yo no Quiero” followed soon afterwards, showcasing the singer’s urban side, mixing her latino influences with trap and urban music. Her latest single, “Benji”, was the first release to feature a Romanian version (Banii), due to the singer’s passion for the native tongue.
The success of her releases drew the attention of latin superstar Reykon, who wanted to collaborate with Oana on a new version of Duro - “Sisas”. The song will be accompanied by a music video shot in Medellin.
