Biography

Nicknamed "The Queen of the Lambada", Franco-Venezuelan singer Natusha was born Nathalie Diaz Rodrigues de Graça in Issy-les-Moulineaux (Hauts-de-Seine) on March 10, 1966. Born to a Portuguese father, she lived in Portugal from the age of fifteen, before moving to Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, where she grew up surrounded by South American and Caribbean music. Trained as a pianist and singer, she came to the attention of Peruvian producer Luis Alva Lescano, known for launching the Kondor Band and owner of the Venezuelan label Discomoda. From Venezuela, where she launched her career and took the nationality, the polyglot singer (she speaks French, Portuguese, Spanish and Italian) collaborated with the Kondor Band on her first album, released by EMI Latin in 1990. She then conquered the local market and continued to pursue her career with producer Jesus Enrique Gonzalez, with whom Natusha produced five studio albums: Enamorada (1991), Re-Mix I (1992), Natusha (1993), Re-Mix II (1994) and Sol y Luna (1995), all of which went gold or platinum, and in which she covered Latin American standars or interpreted her mentor's compositions. In 1996, she released a live album, Natusha en Concierto. After this episode of popularity at the height of the lambada wave, the singer, who had no wish to move into another world with the emergence of tecnomerengue, turned to business and devoted herself to her family life.
