Biography
[edit]Daughter of Iris Marrero and the Puerto Rican pianist and one man band, Eloy Monrouzeau, Yaire entered the music industry at an early age, where she spent several years writing and composing for numerous mainstays in the Latin industry, eventually winning a writing award from ASCAP for the 1993 Olga Tañón hit, Mujer de Fuego. Yaire soon became a performer herself, making her singing debut in Juventud Vibra, her TV debut in Voces en Función and then, releasing a debut album, Formas de Vida, in 1998. Soon after she moved to Madrid, Spain, from where she worked on her three follow up albums: 2001's Yaire, a commercial success that spawned several radio and video hits; 2002's ...Donde Me Lleve El Viento; and 2005's Volver A Nacer.[1]
Yaire is currently living in Puerto Rico and continues writing and producing music for herself and other artists, and has consistently and successfully kept performing live sold out shows in different venues throughout the island. She is currently working on her forthcoming musical projects, soon to be unveiled.
Personal life
[edit]Yaire was married to Spanish producer Miguel Blasco. After marrying him she moved to Spain and on February 13, 2008 she gave birth to her first child, a baby boy named Adam Blasco Monrouzeau. Her marriage eventually ended up in divorce and Yaire now lives happily in Puerto Rico with her son and loving family.
Yaire is very private with her personal life but continues to share on social media a glimpse into her daily life, which now focuses only on her main passions: raising her son, writing and creating music, teaching and producing new talent, while continuing and evolving her music career.
