Alaina Castillo, on the road to prosperity, as she publishes her new single ‘Indica’ with over 430K views and 864K subscribers.Starting out as a church choir girl in League City, Houston whilst recording tunes on Garage Band in her bedroom, led Alaina into the music industry, writing her own bilingual songs and ultimately being signed for a global deal with AWAL recording company.

After leaving school, Alaina began posting Youtube material to further her love of music and connect with people worldwide. Uploading her first content back in 2017, Castillo immediately built up an audience from her unique ASMR singing videos, informative vlogs, covers and original songs. Castillo’s parents had envisaged her following an academic path, so Alaina studied Biology at college to complete her aspiration of becoming a neurosurgeon. However, she quickly came to realise that the only thing she was emotionally inspired by and was in control of was her singing.

Before getting involved in online networking, Alaina worked at the counter in Subway, which taught her many key elements for a successful working life, such as mastering communication skills and maintaining  a positive attitude.

At only 20 years old, this Texan born, Latin pop singer is set to become the next Billie Eilish. After Spotify named her as the US Radar artist for being streamed and viewed over a million times, this musician is gaining fast-paced popularity.

Alaina’s Spanish heritage is integral to her song writing, ‘It’s a big part of who I am’ she enthuses. Her individual artistic style with chilled R&B instrumentals, soft vocals and Latin beats is marking her stamp in the music industry.

‘I just want to be a part of the bigger picture of music and creativity and I want to be as real as I can throughout that whole process.’
