began practicing her artistry at the age of 4 years old in her native
Colombia as she participated in diverse folkloric and artistic
presentations until she migrated to the United States as an
adolescent. Born in Barranquilla, Colombia under the sign of Aquarius,
Lily Vasquez recognizes that her love for music came from her mother,
who was a vocal teacher.

musical production shows the effort many independent recording artists
go through to so their music can be heard worldwide. The support of
companies like Sellaband.com highly recognizes this in the music
industry and, without a doubt, saw Lily as a shining star.
Sellaband.com is an internet site where musicians who lack the support
of big record labels subscribe and give fans or music lovers the
opportunity to listen to their songs. If they like them, they may
purchase one or more shares for 10 dollars each. Once the artist
reaches 50 thousand dollars, Sellaband provides the tools to record a
high quality CD with producers and studios the industry demands.
