The Feature

Built between
two worlds

Veronique Medrano is a singer-songwriter, writer, and historian out of Brownsville, Texas whose music lives exactly where Tejano meets Country Americana. She has been featured in Billboard, Grammy.com, The Washington Post, Texas Monthly, and more for her unique path to stardom.

“Medrano has meticulously crafted an essential album in the towering canon of Latino-country projects.” — Billboard

The bilingual singer-songwriter’s one-of-a-kind sound celebrates Mexican and American duality. She effortlessly showcases her talent to innovate with four studio albums, and is currently in production on her fifth record.

As a writer she has released two comic books with Chispa Comics — the first Mexican American Tejano artist turned comic book writer. As a historian and archivist, her writing has been featured in The Washington Post, Tejano Nation, and Wide Open Country.
