Barcelona Big Blues Band feat. LADYVA — Boogie-Woogie Virtuoso with Global Reach
Pianist and singer LADYVA is one of the foremost contemporary ambassadors of boogie-woogie. Signed to Universal in 2011, her career combines technical virtuosity, overwhelming energy, and a stage presence that has made her a popular figure beyond the specialized circuit, with strong media visibility.
Her digital impact is undeniable: she has over 200 million views on YouTube and hundreds of thousands of followers on social media, reflecting a proposal that connects tradition and spectacle. She has performed at the main European boogie-woogie festivals and at large-scale events alongside international show business stars.
Highlights of her career include performances in London and Glasgow in tribute to Jerry Lee Lewis (2015), her participation in the Cigar Awards in London with Burt Reynolds, Charlie Sheen, and Jonathan Ross (2016), and several invitations from Jools Holland to the Boogie Woogie & Blues Spectacular, sharing the stage with Hugh Laurie. She has also performed at the London Coliseum with the London Concert Orchestra in the Beatles Symphonic project alongside Bonnie Tyler, and with Kool & the Gang at the Great Pyramid of Giza in 2022.
Her collaboration with a big band marks a new chapter, debuting with the Barcelona Big Blues Band at the prestigious Pertuis Big Bands Festival in France. From the very first moment, this partnership showcased something fresh, powerful, and vibrant, where boogie-woogie expands into an unprecedented orchestral dimension.
