Maritzaida
Maritzaida's musical journey began in the quaint coastal town of Isabela, Puerto Rico. Raised by her abuelos in a blended family, she developed an early appreciation for the classics, particularly the timeless melodies of bolero.
Her professional career kicked off in 2012, singing for U.S. Air Force Bands and touring globally with her husband and guitarist, AJ Weibe. In 2022, Maritzaida joined SideHustle Records and her debut albums, Boleros Clásicos Volumen Uno and Volumen Dos, resurrect the traditional bolero style with authenticity, offering a nostalgic yet contemporary experience. Produced by Charlie Hunter, the albums pay homage to Latin America's romantic heritage, featuring classics like "Nuestro Juramento" and "Dos Gardenias." Her April 2024 release, Alma Adentro: La Música de Sylvia Rexach y Tutti Umpierre pays tribute to Puerto Rican composers Sylvia Rexach and Tutti Umpierre that highlights the Puerto Rican bohemia style: a fusion of bolero with elements of jazz and other world music. Her latest release, Sentimientos En Vivo, was produced by Hunter and reflects on the emotional depth of the bolero in a stunning performance accompanied by seven-string guitar and cello.
Maritzaida's soulful renditions, complemented by skilled instrumentalists, deliver a captivating journey through the rich musical legacy of Latin America, inviting listeners to rediscover the allure of traditional bolero.
