René Villa

René Villa (born 26 January 1997) is a Costa Rican pop singer-songwriter and model, whose work is rooted in emotional honesty and musical exploration. Known for his introspective storytelling and evolving sound, Villa approaches music as a space for vulnerability rather than spectacle.
In 2026, he enters a new creative chapter with the release of “Por Qué Te Vas,” his first bachata—a genre he embraces for its emotional depth and narrative tradition. The song reflects his commitment to authenticity, blending classic Latin influences with a contemporary sensibility.
René Villa continues to develop a body of work that prioritises feeling, restraint, and connection, positioning him among a new generation of artists redefining modern Latin music through sincerity and craft.
