PALOMA

Paloma Rodriguez, “p.k.a” Paloma born and raised in Los Angeles, California is of Mexican and Cuban descent and is proud of her heritage. Her talent stems from her family background. Her dad was a composer and an artist and her mother a singer and actress. Dancing professionally since the age of 10, she has toured the globe with LA Salsa Kids as well as done musical shows at festivals nationwide.

During this path she began singing and writing, an untapped arena that was discovered within her soul and has since become her passion to this day. “My parents always told me I had a talent for the arts and that I should pursue a career in this field”.
During one of her performances, former recording artist Latin Prince/Lorenzo, the first Latin artist to be signed by Michael Douglas’ record label Third Stone Atlantic and who had been planning a come back to the music business, attended Paloma’s performance and decided to take a meeting with her. Lorenzo has known her since her childhood performances as a LA Salsa Kid but this little girl had grown up and was ready to go to the next level. Lorenzo then introduced Paloma to his writing and producing partners Jay & Sweet from Sway’d Cap Productions who wrote the single "Love Don't Cost A Thing" J-Lo and a few songs in the movie Save the Last Dance that featured Julia Styles and Sean Patrick Thomas as the lead characters.

Her new self-titled album due out in 2010 under TMG/LRT/ Universal Music Group consists of variety of sounds from Dance, Pop, R&B, and Latin. “My style of music is just fun and upbeat music that anyone can dance to.” She expresses herself with style and finesse. The first single off this album “Fired Up”, to be released this fall/winter ’09 was originally written for another artist by Sweet and Paloma, but Paloma liked it so much that they decided to keep it on her album and now has become the first single to be released off the self-titled album. This sexy, sultry hit produced by Sway’d Cap Productions is sure to get you on to the dance floor.

Not only is Paloma an ecstatic performer but she also enjoys playing the piano and coming up with melodies. She co-wrote many of the other songs on the album as well. Paloma is a well-rounded and unique artist. From her personality, professionalism, charisma, and sense of style, to her creativity, drive and work ethics, she embraces her craft, as a true outstanding artist should. Her main motivation to do music is that she loves performing. “Being on stage is the best feeling for me…. making people happy by watching a great show makes it worthwhile.”

Last year Paloma made her professional film debut playing the Lead Supporting Role as Tatiana, in Villa Media Productions’ independent film, Alondra Smiles winner of the prestigious International Family Film Festival Directors Gold Award in 2007. She has graced many red carpet events such as The Grammy’s, The Latin Billboard Awards, The Alma Awards and many more. Paloma has a substantial fan base on MySpace and is ready to attack the world.

Currently under the management of Glass House Entertainment and Trevino Management Paloma is gearing up for her promotional tour in the US and overseas. She also has managed to find some time in her busy schedule to donate her time to non-profit organizations such as The City of Hope, Famila Unida Living with MS and others. This girl is quite ambitious and when asked what her ultimate goal is… she states she wants to branch out onto other things in the industry such as acting, designing, producing, writing, and more. “I want to be involved in many things as well as being happy of course. That should be every ones ultimate goal.”

“I look up to women who have been successful not only in their careers but also in their personal life.”
