From her early childhood roots in El Salvador to growing up in Marietta, Georgia, Angie has carved out a completely unique space in the independent music scene as a true Latin ambassador to country and Americana music. Angie opens up about witnessing the global explosion of Latin music, breaking through traditional industry gatekeepers, and the exact moment she decided to let go of rigid expectations to embrace pure gratitude. We dive deep into her relentless work ethic, why true courage is always rewarded in the long run, and how literary icon Ernest Hemingway inspired the spirit of her incredible new project. We also talk about her brand-new, genre-blending bilingual album, Whiskey & Hemingway (produced by founding Zac Brown Band member John Driskell Hopkins), her recent performance at CMA Fest, her upcoming return to the legendary Grand Ole Opry stage, and hitting the road with the iconic duo Brooks & Dunn this fall. Stick around until the end to hear all about her incredible bilingual summer love song, "Contigo." What We Discuss: Acting as a Latin ambassador in country music and the genre's shifting landscape. Overcoming industry gatekeepers and connecting with a global audience. Letting go of industry expectations and choosing the path of gratitude.
