Pahua
Singer-songwriter, Producer, and DJ
Pahua is Mexican singer/songwriter, producer and DJ Pau Sotomayor's solo project, a mix of electronic music with Latin rhythms, empowering lyrics and a message of positivism and self-love.
With three EPs, Ofrenda, Ofrenda Remixes and La Cura released by Nacional Records, in just one year of being formed, Pahua has quickly positioned herself as a Mexican pioneer of alternative electronic folk music.
International collaborations with artists such as CERO39 (COL), La Dame Blanche (CUB), Gizmo Varillas (ESP), Klik & Frik (ARG) and Jitwam (US) and support from media such as Colors and Radio Cosmo (ALE), Radio Nova (FR), Sounds & Colors (UK), BBC Radio 1Xtra (UK), Radio 3 (ESP), Radionica (COL), Indie Rocks! and Rolling Stone (MX) endorse the above.
Pahua closed 2021 with a lot of work: two live concerts, at CDMX (300 pax - Foro Indie Rocks!) and GDL (125 pax - Pardo Club); two streaming full band shows for two NGOs (Greenpeace and Blue Solutions); and various DJ sets, private at parties for Nike and Lust, and public, in Departamento (CDMX) and Trópico (Acapulco). In addition, she started 2022 playing at the Bahidorá Carnival and at EDC Mexico. In April she begins her Mexican tour, with 7 confirmed dates and in the summer she will be starting her first European tour at Mallorca Live Fest (Spain), followed by dates in Madrid and Tenerife, London, Lisbon and Paris.
Pahua's most recent single, "Mujer del Desierto", was released on March 4th, and is a tribute to women who fight for their ideal world.
