Kiara (singer)

The song Luna De Plata (My One And Only) was originally recorded by Thomas Anders (of Modern Talking fame) in 1992 on his album Down on Sunset.

One day, a friend talked her into recording a demo tape and submitting it to the two biggest record labels, Sonografica and SonoRodven in Venezuela. At first, she was to be signed to Sonografica. But a coincidental interaction with famous singer, songwriter and producer Rudy La Scala changed it all. As Kiara explains, her visual and singing caught the attention of La Scala. He immediately showed her how impressed he was with her and wanted her to sing the songs he had written. She accepted to record and produce with La Scala and was quickly signed to SonoRodven for the recording of her debut album in 1987. Before the album’s release, she was told she had to pick a stage name out of 5 options that were presented to her. She was going to use her actual name “Sabrina”, but the company thought it would lead to confusion because there was another Italian artist with the same name as “Sabrina”. The name “Kiara” was presented to her and she immediately picked it, as it is from a Venezuelan native (indigenous) Princess from the state of Yaracuy, not too far from where the singer was born.

Gloria Sabrina Gómez Delgado (born May 14, 1962) is a Venezuelan singer, composer, actress, lawyer and TV presenter known by her professional name Kiara.
