She has since been nominated for an Emmy and won a Latin Grammy for Best New Artist. She has released four albums including “Ilusión” which was nominated for the 2017 Best Latin Pop Album Grammy. Moreno has toured with singers Tracy Chapman, Ani DiFranco, Punch Brothers, Hugh Laurie and Calexico, and has shared the international stage with pop music luminaries such as Bono, Andrea Boccelli and Van Dyke Parks.
