Born in Lake Charles, Louisiana but raised between the bayou and Mexico, sisters Hanna Nicole Pérez Mosa, 29, and Ashley Grace Pérez Mosa, 27 are true Latin pop originals. Influenced by country stars like Shania Twain and Carrie Underwood, the Sony Music Mexico artists write and sing captivating lyrical narratives, mostly in Spanish.
“We’re storytellers,” says Hanna. In the last decade, they’ve charted four singles on Hot Latin Songs, although their biggest success has been in Mexico. Their new live album Primera Fila reached No. 1 in that country’s AMPROFON sales chart and has spent 20 weeks on the chart.
