Sophie Castillo, a London-born singer-songwriter of Colombian and Cuban heritage, is dedicated to promoting Latin American music in the UK. Inspired by genres like salsa and reggaeton, she believes these styles can flourish similarly to Afrobeats and bhangra. During her performance at SXSW 2023, she debuted her single 'The Betrayal,' a baile funk song that reflects her musical roots and influences. Castillo's upbringing in a musically rich family, particularly having a salsa dancer and DJ for a father, integrates her passion for diverse musical heritages into her artistry.
British people [don't] get enough credit as to how open-minded they are... They're excited. They're not like, 'Oh, I don't want to listen to that because it's in Spanish.'
