Fanny Lu was born on February 8, 1973, in a Columbian city Santiago De Cali. Unlike other popular artists, who started playing musical instruments in writing songs when they were very young, Fanny didn’t even think about a singing career. She studied in a French high school and then moved back to Latin America to enroll in the University of the Andes. Surprisingly enough, her major didn’t have anything to do with music. She earned a bachelor’s degree in industrial engineering.
In 1994, Fanny got her first chance to show her artistic talents when she was invited to a Columbian TV show called Locomotora. The show allowed Fanny to start an acting career. Lu managed to work as a producer, actress, radio host, and even lend her voice to a few cartoon characters. Even though Fanny loved music since childhood, her music career started when she was already older than 30.
