London-based indie artist Sophie Castillo (@sophiecastillomusic) pays homage to her Cuban-Colombian roots through her music and is working to increase the visibility of British Latinidad. She’s known to combine genres including bedroom pop, bachata, indie, salsa, and reggaeton through tracks including “Call Me By Your Name” and “Ojos Lindos.”
“I don’t look British. I look Latin American, and I think that plays such a big part in identity as well, when you just physically don’t blend in. My parents raised me to be proud of that: proud of where I’m from, to love my features, and to love how I am,” she told Remezcla in 2024.
