With this album, Adriana toured extensively, including performing as the opening act for Seal. Her musical style crosses over from traditional forms to contemporary streams of popular music, incorporating the varied sensibilities of pop, jazz and latin. Besides Adriana’s voice and piano, her main instrument is a rarely used instrument…the flute. 

Adriana is already earning credits in the US. “One More Mistake I Made” is a song co-written by Adriana and Vince Gill, which is on Vince Gill’s new album “Down to My Last Bad Habit” and has reached Billboard charts – Billboard 200 and Top Country albums. In 2015, Adriana was selected by the Recording Academy/GrammyPro as an up and coming recording artist/songwriter. She currently resides in Los Angeles and is the founder and owner of Rozario Music Dreams Publishing.
