Listen: IN THE HEIGHTS Star Leslie Grace Releases New Album 'Amor, ¿Quién Eres?'

Leslie Grace, who starred as Nina Rosario in the film adaptation of In the Heights, has released her first new album in over a decade, Amor, ¿Quién Eres? The album blends Latin pop, bachata-pop textures and R&B influences. Listen to it below.

Amor, ¿Quién Eres? is a 14-track bilingual conceptual project from the GRAMMY-nominated recording artist, which includes an English version of her single “Queen Bed."Grace first envisioned the project as a poem, beginning writing on February 19, 2014. By the end of that same day, it became a song, and eventually evolved into this full-length album built around a central idea of "Love, who are you? Or Amor, ¿quién eres?"

Onscreen, Grace will next star in STAGES, a Live Nation project directed by Ryan Booth. The film follows two mid-career musicians navigating the realities of starting over and touring independently. She also co-leads Campeón Gabacho, directed by Jonás Cuarón. The film tells the story of Liborio, a young migrant who crosses the Rio Grande in search of a better life in the United States, ultimately finding identity and resilience within a Latino community in New York City.
