Constanza Giacomelli was born in Montreal, Canada, to an Italian/Chilean mother and Austrian father. Due to her family background and upbringing, Constanza grew up listening to a great diversity of musical styles and genres. Among her main influences today we find artists such as Gregory Porter, Cat Power, Monica Zetterlund, Billie Holiday, Madeleine Peyroux. As a unique singer herself, Constanza stands out for her depth and sensuality, along with her vocal clarity and maturity. She gave her first steps in music taking piano and drum lessons in the Music Conservatory of Montreal. Only at the age of 12, inspired by Amy Winehouse's ''Back to Black'' album, is when she started to sing. 
In summer of 2010, she moved to the South of Spain, where her music career officially began after becoming the lead singer of the Andalusian band "JAZZ 4 U". In 2014,  she formed her very own ensemble Constanza Jazz Quartet with the finest musicians in the area. The group is still active to this very day, playing regularly across the Costa del Sol and in the rest of Spain.
Besides her Spanish quartet, Constanza has founded her most recent project in Norway, alongside pianist Øystein Kvinge: the five-piece band Constanza Bergen Jazz Project. Her Scandinavian quintet is focused on the dynamic elements of Latin Jazz combined with their elegant interpretations of French swing classics from the 1940s.
