The daughter of Alberto Guerra (former Chivas de Guadalajara coach) and Gloria Vázquez, Ely lived the first few years of her life in
Monterrey, where she was born, before moving to San Luis Potosí and then to Guadalajara, due to her father's work. It was in Guadalajara
where she first discovered her passion for music. At the age of fifteen, the young Ely Guerra decided to follow her dreams and look for
opportunities in Mexico City. It was there that she received a contract with BMG. Two years later, she released her first self-titled album Ely
Guerra and made her professional debut as a singer in 1992.[1] However, the album was not very successful.
Ely Guerra later left BMG and signed a contract with another record label. With EMI, she released "Pa' Morirse de Amor" in 1997, along with
the hit singles "Peligro" and "Angel de Fuego"; and "Lotofire" in 1999, which was edited in the United States by Higher Octave. She also
released the LP "4" in Argentina and Chile, which contained a compilation of the albums "Pa' Morirse de Amor" and "Lotofire", as well as her
most recent production, titled "Sweet & Sour, Hot y Spicy" released in 2004.
Throughout her successful career, Ely Guerra has collaborated with artists including Sussie 4, Control Machete, José Fors, Fratta, La Ley
and Quem, and has also participated in the soundtracks for the films Amores perros, De la calle, and Vacas vaqueras. In addition, her
picture next to Julieta Venegas appeared on the cover of Time magazine, introducing them as the most promising performers in the Mexican
rock scene. Her latest album "Sweet & Sour, Hot y Spicy", released in 2004, contained the hit singles "Ojos Claros, Labios Rosas" and
"Quiéreme Mucho."
Ely Guerra is currently recording a new studio album which will be released in Mexico in early 2008.
On October 18, 2007, Ely sang along with 30 Seconds to Mars on the MTV Music Awards Latin America 2007, in Mexico, the song "From
Yesterday". « hide |
