NJPAC presents Latin Star Natalia Lafourcade

originally published: 02/05/2025


(NEWARK, NJ) -- New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) presents the world-renowned singer, songwriter, and music producer Natalia Lafourcade on Thursday, June 19, 2025 at 8:00pm. She is one of this century's most influential voices in Latin popular culture.

Exploring Mexican and Latin American rhythms through her music, Lafourcade creates innovative connections across genres, generations, and identities. Her most recent Grammy Award®-winning studio album, *De Todas las Flores* (Of All the Flowers), serves as a musical diary inspired by various life experiences. The album blends experimental jazz, avant-garde ballads, and sunny retro tropical pop, creating a space where tragedy, warmth, restlessness, and acceptance coexist.

In 2024, Lafourcade was named the first Ambassador of Music for Peace at the 19th World Summit of Nobel Peace Prize Laureates. Her music has been recognized for its ability to break down barriers, unite people, and spread messages of hope, peace, respect, and solidarity. Throughout her career, Lafourcade has won 17 Latin Grammy Awards®, 4 Grammy Awards®, a Billboard Music Award, and 3 MTV Awards.

"With her ability to weave history into the mainstream, Lafourcade has brought the past soaring into the 21st century and established herself as a proud guardian of Latin America’s musical legacy." — NPR
