Sobre el artista
Jessica Darrow is a Cuban-American actress and singer who gained widespread recognition for voicing Luisa Madrigal in Disney’s 2021 animated musical film Encanto. Her performance of the song «Surface Pressure» from the film’s soundtrack became a major streaming and chart success, introducing her to audiences well beyond her prior stage and screen work.
Before Encanto, Darrow appeared in projects including the 2019 film Feast of Seven Fishes, in which she played Sarah, building a foundation as a working actress before her breakout musical role. Her rise with Encanto placed her within the wave of attention surrounding the film’s Lin-Manuel Miranda-penned soundtrack, which became a cultural phenomenon.
Musically, her work is tied closely to the pop and musical-theater sensibilities of the Encanto soundtrack, characterized by rhythmic, character-driven storytelling rather than a standalone solo pop career. She continues to be closely identified with the role and song that brought her to prominence, including remix versions such as the Alok remix of «Surface Pressure».
