With a career spanning more than 16 years, Ángela Leiva has gained recognition as one of the leading female voices in Argentina’s vibrant music scene. In collaboration with Ángela, FONO has acquired part of her musical catalog, reaffirming its commitment to amplify her songs across diverse markets and strengthen her presence on a global scale. Her artistry bridges tradition and innovation, positioning her at the forefront of Latin music’s evolution.
“This signing is the confirmation of my motto, ‘My voice for the world’. One of my greatest wishes is to take my music, my songs, and my voice to the world.” – Ángela Leiva
Over the years, she has shared the stage with a wide range of icons, including Los Ángeles Azules, Luciano Pereyra, Grupo 5, Dyango, Emanero, Q’Lokura, DesaKTa2, Américo, and Eugenia Quevedo, further consolidating her versatility across genres.
“Ángela is an artist with monumental talent, impeccable discipline, and an admirable career. At FONO, we are thrilled to join her creative journey and open a new chapter together, bringing her voice to the world.” – Ana Martínez, General Manager of FONO USA.
Currently, Ángela Leiva is captivating audiences on her “Mi Voz Para El Mundo” tour, which has sold out in several cities across Argentina and will continue with a highly anticipated European leg later this year.
Fans can also look forward to her upcoming collaboration with the iconic Grupo Cañaveral. The new track evokes the pain of a love that fades away, leaving behind an echo of deep anguish. The voices of Ángela and Cañaveral merge with natural harmony to bring to life the story of a loved one who no longer inhabits our lives but whose absence resonates strongly in the heart. The song will be featured on Grupo Cañaveral’s album, set for release on October 30, 2025.
As she begins this new chapter with FONO, Ángela Leiva continues to demonstrate why she is one of the most enduring and transformative voices in Latin music.
