York University grad, Amanda Martinez, is in South Africa to perform her World Cup song Sueños Posibles (Dreams Realized). Her mother is from South Africa and her father is from Mexico – and those two teams play in the opener!
Born in Canada, Martinez grew up in a house that loved music. Although she spent her early years immersed in music, studying classical piano and ballet, Martinez obtained an undergraduate degree in biology and later completed her master’s degree in international business.
A distinctive Latin / Jazz artist, Amanda Martinez brings flair and variety to each and every one of her songs. Her sound is a blend of musical influences, including flamenco inspired rhythms, Afro-Cuban beats and Mexican folk music. The Toronto based singer – songwriter records her albums almost entirely in Spanish, but most of her fan base is English speaking, her first language.
