Helen Ochoa

Helen Ochoa emerged as a Latin pop talent steeped from childhood in the music of José Alfredo Jiménez, José José, and Juan Gabriel, while tracing her path alongside corrido, ranchera, and banda forebears such as La Santa Cecilia, Los Rieleros del Norte, and Calibre 50. She entered the world and grew up in the area surrounding Fresno, California, launching her vocal journey at eight years old with unwavering commitment thereafter. Her appearance on the well-known Puerto Rican singing competition Objetivo Fama led to an invitation to sign with the respected label and management firm Gerencia 360, under which she issued her breakthrough first single—a version of Beyoncé’s “Si Yo Fuera un Chico.” In 2016 she delivered her debut full-length studio album, bearing the same title, Si Yo Fuera un Chico.
