From the heart of Guantánamo to the world stage, Esney Morales is a Cuban artist whose voice carries the soul of a nation and the innovation of a new generation. Singer, composer, arranger, and performer — Esney is a multidimensional talent redefining Cuban music with grace, depth, and daring rhythm.
Born in 1985 in Guantánamo, Esney’s musical path began early. At just ten years old, she started formal training at the prestigious EVA Regino E. Boti before continuing her studies at the José María Ochoa Professional Conservatory in Holguín. That foundation gave birth to an artist who seamlessly fuses traditional Cuban elements with the vibrancy of jazz, funk, pop, and Afrobeat — and the result is nothing short of captivating.
Her voice is both powerful and tender, her compositions rich with emotion and groove. Whether she’s delivering soft, soulful melodies or riding hard-hitting hip hop beats, Esney crafts music that is unmistakably hers.

And most recently, Esney stuns once again with “Se Nos Va La Vida”, a heartfelt boom-bap anthem co-produced with Línea Defensiva. The track is a poetic ode to hope, resistance, and life itself. Her delivery is raw and honest, beautifully balanced between vulnerability and resilience.

Throughout her career, Esney has graced some of Cuba’s most iconic stages — from La Zorra y El Cuervo to Bar Monseñor — and collaborated with revered national artists such as Anaís Abreu, Emilio Morales, and Corazones de Fuego. Her sound, however, has no borders. It’s a universal language — rooted in Afro-Cuban tradition but always open to new stories and sonic exploration.
