Chenoa Biography
Chenoa was born Maria Laura in Mar de Plata, June 25th, 1975. Both her parents working as professional musicians, Laura was exposed regularly to music and performance from an early age, favoring the sounds of Earth Wind and Fire and other American Soul/Funk groups. At a very young age, Laura's parents relocated the family from Argentina, having gotten regular work in the busy hotels and clubs of the tourism-centric Mallorca, Spain. Laura's chance arose when her mother was once too sick to perform, and Laura sang in her place. She continued to sing and dance publicly throughout her school-aged years, and upon graduation got work at the Casino de Mallorca. Opportunity knocked yet again when Laura entered into the first edition of the Spanish TV show "Operacion Triunfo" in 2001.
Her success on the show lead to her debut record release Chenoa, in April 2002. Though many reality TV star's careers are short lived, Chenoa generated enough hit singles and buzz to make the way for subsequent releases Mis Canciones Favoritas and Soy Mujer. Dedicated touring throughout Europe and Latin America have won Chenoa quite and audience. Her 2006 release Nada es Igual went double Platinum within a year. ~ Evan C. Gutierrez, All Music Guide
