Conexión Divina make history as the world’s first Gen-Z female sierreño group. The Mexican American Latinas not only sing but they also write their own songs and play their instruments. “That’s the whole concept of our group: that women can do it too!” says Liz, the singer of the group.

Sandra, who is 19, was raised in Dallas and plays the bass guitar and has relocated to Los Angeles.
