Lido Pimienta |

Lido Pimienta is a Toronto-based, Colombian-born musician, interdisciplinary ar9st, and curator. She has performed, exhibited, and curated around the world since 2002, exploring the poli9cs of gender, race, motherhood, iden9ty and the construct of the Canadian landscape in the La9n American diaspora and vernacular.

Her latest album Miss Colombia takes her ecsta9c hybridity to a new level, building on the “nu” intersec9on of electronica and cumbia established by her first two albums, Color, released in 2010, and the 2017 Polaris Prize-winning La Papessa, as Canadian album of the year. Miss Colombia has only con9nued to grow Lido’s presence, with the album garnering mul9ple award nomina9ons including a 2020 La9n Grammy nomina9on for Best Alterna9ve Music Album, and a 2021 Grammy nomina9on for Best La9n Rock, Urban or Alterna9ve Album.
