After the release of her 3rd CD, TriAngulo, one of her songs rose to #16 on the Billboard Latin Charts, was played nation-wide on Music Choice, cable television, and heard all across the East Coast Latin Radio stations. Another single off of TriAngulo, ‘Sin Ti’, reached over 200,000 plays on various online streaming sites. She starred in the Music Videos for both songs and ‘No Se Como Olvidarte’ was released on VEVO. TriAngulo is outstanding perfection by New York’s top Salsa, Bachata and Merengue musicians featuring Luisito Quintero, Carlos Cascante, Gio Williams, Mastakriz LaGuira, Jose Frias, Simon Abreu, Luis Marcelo, and many other incredible players.
“Bridging the gap of commercial Latin Music, this album brings a new and bold female voice. It is sexy, sultry, powerful, insightful, all-original, and extremely danceable.”
Layla continues to perform around the US and the world.
