STRAIGHT OUTTA COATZA

Daniela Guerrero, known as NINA NINA, is a multidisciplinary artist, producer, and educator from Coatzacoalcos, Mexico.

Her work reflects on the politics of pleasure, joy, radical imagination, parties, and rituals, using art and technology as tools for liberation.

NINA NINA fuses rhythms from the Veracruz coast and various parts of the world, incorporating elements of queer music and experimental electronic sounds.

Through powerful rhymes and chants, accompanied by drum machines, effects, and synthesizers, she creates impactful performances aimed at audiences who love to party.
