Lido Pimienta is a Colombian-Canadian musician and artist known for her eclectic and vibrant approach to music, which often blends elements of Indigenous, Afro-Colombian, and electronic sounds. With a powerful and emotive voice, her music deftly explores themes of race, gender, and identity, often reflecting her experiences as an Indigenous and Afro-Colombian woman. Pimienta burst onto the alternative music scene with her album "La Papessa," which won the prestigious Polaris Music Prize in 2017, distinguishing her as a fearless and visionary talent.

Doubling as a visual artist, Pimienta's artistry extends beyond her music into her performances, which are rich with ceremonial aesthetics and storytelling, adding layers to her expression. Her later works, such as the critically acclaimed album "Miss Colombia" (2020), continue to showcase her growth as an artist unafraid to confront societal norms while celebrating her cultural heritage. Pimienta's recent releases like "EIN SOF, Infinito," and her engaging Spotify Singles further solidify her standing as an innovative force in the contemporary music landscape, as she continues to push boundaries with her unique sound and inspiring message.
