Born in New York City and raised in Puerto Rico, Christine D’Clario has played an important role in spreading the popularity of contemporary praise & worship throughout Latin America. Since the mid-2000s, the singer has released a long string of Spanish-language anthems beloved just as much for their searing religious intensity as for D’Clario’s divinely elevating voice. Hers is certainly a sound geared toward arenas packed with believers. At the same time, D’Clario is no stranger to the intimate. On the 2012 album De Vuelta Al Jardín, for instance, she reveals a gift for CCM confessionals lined with sweetened hooks and relaxed grooves.
