Elena La Fulana is a Latin Grammy-nominated instrumentalist, singer-songwriter, and leader of the DC-based bilingual Latin-folk band Elena & Los Fulanos. Originally from Managua, Nicaragua, Elena identifies as both American and Nicaraguan and her music, which ranges from twangy, heartbreak-themed folk Americana, to soothing, introspective, violin-infused Latin cumbia, reflects this dual identity. Her band’s second album, Volcán, was hailed as "a bilingual folk album for the resistance" by the Washington City Paper, a publication that also selected Elena for their People Issue 2017 highlighting notable Washingtonians. Most recently, Elena has been touring with the Latin-Grammy winning and Grammy nominated band Flor de Toloache, and with whom she performed at the Kennedy Center Honors in 2019 at the Latin Grammys in 2021, and was nominated for a Latin Grammy in 2022.

Elena La Fulana, nominada al Latin Grammy, es instrumentalista, cantautora, y líder del grupo latino bilingüe, Elena & Los Fulanos. Originaria de Managua, Nicaragua, Elena se identifica como Nicaragüense y Americana y su música refleja su identidad bicultural, entrelazando elementos musicales de Latino America y los Estados Unidos. El grupo fue nominado dos veces para el premio "Wammie" y su segundo disco Volcán (2017) fue nombrado “el disco bilingüe de la resistencia” por el Washington City Paper, publicación que también la reconoció como una de sus personas del año 2017. Recientemente, Elena comenzó a tocar con Flor de Toloache, con quien tocó en los Kennedy Center Honors en 2019 y en
los Latin Grammys en 2021 y con quién fue nominada al Latin Grammy en 2022.
