Two-time Tony nominee Daphne Rubin-Vega first lit up Broadway with her debut as Mimi in the original cast of Rent. In the 1994 workshop, writer/composer Jonathan Larson declared her Mimi “the real thing,” and the show began its first life off-Broadway at New York Theater Workshop before moving to The Nederlander in April 1996. For her work, she won a Theater World Award as well as Tony and Drama Desk Award nominations as Best Actress in a musical.

With her multifaceted acting career and some incredible theatre projects ahead of her, Rubin-Vega’s latest endeavor is REDEMPTION SONGS (Sh-K-Boom Records), a much-anticipated collection of original and diversely classic songs.

“Some of these songs were written when I experienced deep losses and incredible firsts. I was inspired to write again. It was a very ‘fertile’ time for creativity,” says Rubin-Vega. The result developed into a form of personal redemption; a vibrant and sophisticated collection of pop, Latin folk, rock and reggae influenced songs that are soulful, passionate and very reflective of Rubin-Vega herself.

As a child, Daphne moved to NYC’s Greenwich Village from Panama. It was in the center of this bohemia that Daphne discovered her passion for music and performing.

“I was in the seventh grade when almost overnight I realized I was quite popular with the girls in school, and my house was turning into the hot after school hang out,” Rubin-Vega recalls. “It didn’t take long to figure out that it was because my brothers’ band played in the basement almost every afternoon,” she added.
