Raquel Rodriguez is a multifaceted artist from Los Angeles who has made a name for herself by defying categorization. Raised in Santa Monica, Raquel was always recognized for her talent, often being labeled "the singer," yet her artistry goes far beyond that. As a singer, producer, songwriter, and performer, she continually pushes her creative boundaries, navigating the music industry on her own terms.
At the heart of Raquel’s work is a commitment to authenticity. She thrives on blending personal experiences with broader societal narratives, offering a fresh perspective on womanhood, self-worth, and independence. Deeply passionate about creating art that resonates personally while challenging stereotypes, her music is an honest reflection of who she is—a fusion of soulful vocals, live instrumentation, and modern production that feels both nostalgic and fresh. With an infectious energy, her sound is undeniably fun, funky, danceable, and groovy, inviting listeners to move and connect.
Throughout her career, Raquel has stayed true to her vision and sound, determined to carve out a space that feels uniquely her own. Her breakout studio release, The 310, inspired by her LA roots, featured the hit single Mile High, which garnered over 5 million streams and solidified her presence in the R&B scene. In 2021, she followed up with Sweet Side, an independently released album that showcased exciting collaborations with the likes of MXXWLL, Matt Johnson (Jamiroquai), and Amber Navran (Moonchild). With over 25 million streams, Sweet Side continues to resonate with fans worldwide, becoming a staple on playlists across the globe.
In October 2024, Raquel released her most personal work yet, Housewife, a project that challenges traditional stereotypes of womanhood by drawing parallels between the overlooked labor of housewives and independent artists. The album fuses her love for music with her newfound passion for cooking, including a collection of her favorite recipes. Collaborating with familiar producers and songwriters like SammyB, Jess Best, Nigel Hall, Amber Navran, and Dux, along with new contributors like Misha, Housewife blends live musicianship with modern electronic elements, further refining her distinct sound.
Beyond her projects, Raquel’s journey as an independent artist is a testament to her perseverance and dedication. She works tirelessly to bring her vision to life, whether in her home studio or in the kitchen, nurturing connections with her community. Raquel believes in defining success on her own terms—embracing balance, creativity, and joy in both her personal and professional life. With a growing fanbase and an independent team that competes with the best of them, Raquel continues to prove that real fulfillment comes from authenticity. Her artistry, much like her life, is a celebration of individuality, resilience, and the freedom to forge your own path.
