Los Angeles native and 22-year-old artist Angela Muñoz makes her solo debut with 'Descanso.' From a young age, Angela was immersed in music, listening to The Doors, 2Pac, and Queen in her father's car, while her mother played Samba and Salsa. Her brother, Brandon, introduced her to new artists and classic records from Stones Throw, sparking their songwriting journey together. Angela followed her passion for music early on, expressing creativity through songwriting, piano, and guitar. Her debut record, 'Introspection', a collaboration with Adrian Younge, was released in 2020. At 17, she joined The Midnight Hour, Younge’s group with Ali Shaheed Muhammad. Creating her own music, Angela wanted to honor her roots: her father arrived in Highland Park from Mexico in the '70s, where he met her mother, of mixed Puerto Rican and Mexican heritage. Childhood walks down Figueroa in Highland Park with her grandparents left a lasting impression. 'Descanso' marks a new chapter for Angela, reflecting on her upbringing, memories, and the theme of love in its various forms. Written with her brother, the EP’s title means "to rest" in Spanish. Angela explains, “Rest is necessary for growth, it allows time to digest experiences and feelings, and helps me better understand them.” 'Descanso' showcases both vulnerability and strength, offering comfort to herself and others.
