At the young age of 2 Ximena Sariana went to an Ella Fitzgerald concert that would end up determining her path in life. Active in the entertainment industry since 1994 when she began playing roles in movies produced by her father, Fernando Sarinana, and telenovelas, Ximena was destined for the spotlight. This 26-year old, Mexico-native started taking singing lessons at 7, and can take credit for writing most of the songs on her first album, Mediocre, which came out in 2008. It was a contemporary pop-rock/vocal jazz album, and critically acclaimed, nominated for an array of awards, including a couple in the 2008 Latin Grammy's. When developing the album, she had a desire to get more in touch with her native tongue and took the album as a challenge to connect with her roots. Her musical style is a blend of pop, jazz, rock, and alternative, graced by enticing lyrics and a rocker voice. Ximena's songs were made for dancing to, so you better come prepared to move, whether you're aware of it or not. She will be performing at Coachella 2012 on Friday, April 13th and 20th.
