My name is Mercedes, I'm 23 years old, and I'm a vocalist, songwriter, and live performer located in New York. I sang for Tha Bizness at only 13 years old and have continued to work with other artists/producers. I am also the vocalist for several professional all-star cheerleading routines. I have a very versatile voice and can sing any genre.
I was fortunate enough to create my first professionally recorded single when I was thirteen years old and I have performed for almost more than ten years. I have been recording for several years with reputable artists and producers, and have been chosen to be the top line vocalist for several projects including various singles, features on many projects, DJ mixes, and even professional cheer music references. (Contact me and I will send you various samples)
I specialize in Electro-Pop/Indie, but I have the ability to sing any genre and have done so for many years. I have a great ear for harmonies and with my wide vocal range, I am able to easily alter the tone of my voice to match the desired mood and genre.
I am looking to continue my development as a musician and to form new connections with incredible individuals. I will dedicate everything that I have to accomplish perfection for your project. Contact me now so we can get started on making something incredible!
I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

Endorse merce
I was searching for a great vocalist to assist with a chorus for a 💔 hip hop track and Merce was by far the most talented one to respond and she KILLED the lyrics I had written out for the beat. Even made some changes to fit the mood of the song that I was looking for. Definitely looking forward to working with her in the future before she blows up! Haha 😄
I had the pleasure of working with merce on a project for a song that I had already written for quite some time. Before working with her, I chose a couple of other vocalists and unfortunately I was unable to find the right fit for my project. merce's vocals are so unique, she has a very quick turnaround, and truly is such a genuine person to work with. I highly recommend her for any project as she is very versatile and will revise as needed.
