Growing up in Spain afforded me the distinct pleasure of hearing some of the great Spanish singers and see them in concert when I lived over there. One of the greats that stands out in my mind is legendary singer Rocío Dúrcal. Obviously, the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree because her daughter, Shaila Dúrcal, also has tremendous singing talent.
Shaila Dúrcal is back on the music scene and has recently completed a very personal album which sets her own path. The singer-songwriter was inspired to create this album from her stories and experiences. Her music resonates with a new sound and allows her fans to get more insight into who she is as a person and as an artist.
As Walmart’s Acceso Total Artist of the Month, Shaila Dúrcal is also treating her fans and listeners to a live performance and interview. Acceso Total talks to Shaila about her famous mother, musical influences and working with her family. Don’t miss her one-on-one interview, exclusive live concert and make sure to pick up Shaila in stores or online next year!
Her new album even features a song in English titled “Choosing Me.” As I was listening to this song live, my eight year old son came over to me and asked, “Who is that singing?” When I explained to him that it was Shaila Dúrcal, he told me that he really liked her voice. I have to admit that I agree with him because I love her voice too.
Aside from offering us this intimate view into Shaila’s new album, Walmart’s Acceso Total is offering one of you the opportunity to win a guitar autographed by Shaila Dúrcal! You can also check out other great artists as they are featured every month and by liking the Walmart’s Acceso Total Facebook page and following them on Twitter!

I have never heard of this artist. I will need to check her out. I know my daughter would love the guitar.
Sounds exciting and she looks great!
My favorite time to listen to music is in the car and/or when I am at the gym. I like to sing along in the car.
I love listening to music when I am going to work. This looks like an amazing singer.
I listen to music in the car mostly but I love playing it in the house too.
Wow! What a great giveaway! I’ve not heard her music before but I am sure it was an amazing experience!
She’s a beautiful girl – looks like she can put on a show, too!

My family and I enjoy learning about people and places through music, so this CD would be a welcome addition to our music collection.

I have to admit I’ve never heard of her, but I’m sure my son in law has. I will have to ask him which songs of hers I should listen to.
Rocio is such a musical legend! I agree that her daughter is very talented. Que bien por la musica espanhola!
Looks like a fun and lively album! I’m not familiar with the artist but will now have to go have a listen!
I generally do not listen to music-well maybe occasionally when I am driving a distance an then I listen to the oldies. I have never heard of this singer but from what you are saying she is probably very very good.
I haven’t heard of her before, but then again I don’t listen to much music so I think I will check her out!
I listened to her a bit and she does have an amazing voice. Artist of the month is quite an honor too. My husband and I love to listen to music on Saturday mornings when we are getting errands done around the house.
