Dee Hernandez
One of the most exciting and magnetic voices emerging from Canada's Latin Jazz music scene, Cuban-Canadian artist, Dee Hernandez, creates music that seamlessly blends Afro-Cuban rhythms, jazz textures, soul, funk, and contemporary songwriting into a sound that is uniquely her own. Based in Atlantic Canada, Hernandez brings a rare combination of technical sophistication, cultural richness, and emotional authenticity to every release, drawing inspiration from her Cuban roots, her experience of immigration and reinvention, and her lifelong belief in music's ability to connect people across cultures.
Equally captivating as a vocalist, songwriter, and performer, Hernandez has earned recognition from CBC's Saturday Night Jazz, Frequencies, The Block and Marvin's Room, Jazz.FM91, radio stations across the country, and praise from Canadian icons Jully Black and Sass Jordan. Her sold-out Ella Fitzgerald tribute tour and performances across the country have established her as one of Canada's most compelling new voices. A 2026 East Coast Music Award nominee for Global Recording of the Year, Hernandez is gearing up to release her debut album, Deshecha = Undone, on September 25, 2026.
Ahead of its release, Hernandez is sharing one final single, "I Want to Fall in Love,". A joyful Cuban jazz-funk anthem about embracing vulnerability and choosing hope after heartbreak, the single completes the emotional arc introduced with her recent single "Used," offering one final glimpse into an album that celebrates resilience, cultural identity, human connection, and the experiences what shaped her into who she is today.
