Before a special performance of her new single “Khe Calor” at “A Summer of Don Julio” in Los Angeles, Mexican artist DANNA sat down with Billboard to share her pre-show secrets, sharing details about wardrobe secrets and her favorite Don Julio cocktail.

DANNA: 

Hello, everyone I’m DANNA. I’m here with Billboard and Don Julio spilling the tea of my pre show secrets. My pre show routine is warming up the voice, warming up the body. Sometimes when I need just a lil’ spicy touch, I take a shot. I’m very into techno music right now. So I love listening to reggaeton, 100% to enter this hot energy.What role does Don Julio play? I’m always cheering up everyone and Don Julio is always there in my birthdays, in my shows, in my office, everywhere. My favorite Don Julio ever? I mean, I always go for the 1942. That’s my favorite one. I think lime and salt is my go to cocktails, but I like spicy margaritas. I’m into everything, to be honest. To have Don Julio’s support in my career at this moment t’s like tequila and music goes together. And for me, it’s art too. Making a tequila, it’s artistic. Making music is something artistic. To bring a project 100% made in Mexico, I love it. I’m very grateful. What can I tell you about my look today on brand of “que color.” We are right in this hot season and these and using these colors like brown and gold. I’m in this era of just loving myself and feeling hot. Fashion is part of my artsy too. The wardrobe, the dancers, the lighting, the visuals and what I’m wearing on stage is really important for me, because everything has to look in the same universe.
