One of contemporary Latin American music’s most influential voices and creative forces returns to London for a very special night at the Barbican, following her sensational sold out performance at Electric Brixton in 2024.
A singer-songwriter, producer, and visual artist, she has built a body of work that crosses genres and disciplines with an intense, visceral identity that is constantly evolving. With multiple Latin GRAMMY Awards, numerous international awards, GRAMMY nominations, global tours, and a commanding stage presence, she has established herself as a fierce narrator of human emotion.
Across nine studio albums, her work — ranging from bolero to electronic music and vocal experimentation — coexists with a prolific visual production in painting, photography, and performance art. She has brought her work to emblematic stages and festivals such as Coachella, the Hollywood Bowl, Auditorio Nacional, and the Olympia in Paris, and performed at iconic venues including Madison Square Garden. Her artistic process was also captured in the Netflix documentary Te Amo, Mon Laferte.
Following her performance portraying Sally Bowles in Cabaret in Mexico City, Laferte presents her latest album Femme Fatale in a cabaret-style live show. Influenced by her time in musical theatre, the album explores the archetype of women historically deemed “dangerous” for being independent, sexually liberated, and unwilling to conform.
