Camila has a natural talent; she is very spontaneous and moldable. The idea is that she can make this a life choice. Now you have to support the family and not lose your way.

During December 2010, Silva began preparing her performance for the Viña del Mar Festival, where she commented that she would love Claudio "El Gitano" Valdés to also participate with her. Claudio took second place in the talent competition where she was the winner. [6] Virginia Reginato, mayor of Viña del Mar, referred to Silva's participation in the festival, saying that she did not comply with the requirements of artists presented at the festival, so she could only be in the opening of one night. [7] On 21 December 2010, Silva received recognition from the Municipality of San Pedro de la Paz, as part of a show supporting the development of that municipality's arts and culture. This award was added to one already received on 7 December 2010 from the mayor of San Pedro de la Paz, where she was recognized as the "2010 Outstanding Artist" during the city's anniversary.
She was presented at the beginning of 2011 at the 3rd Festival of the Voice of San Pedro de la Paz and at the commemorations of the Sanatajuanina Week of the commune of Santa Juana. [8] Silva was presented on 23 February 2011, at the opening of that day of the 2011 Viña del Mar Festival, as part of a tribute to the Argentine singer Sandro, who died in early 2010. [9] At the end of March 2011, she participated with Manuel García in the launch of the annual Hogar de Cristo campaign in the Bío Bío Region. [10] Silva performed at the Fiebre de baile and Talento Chileno finale during 2011, singing "Último Día", which was the first single from her debut album with the Sony Music label that debuted in stores on 8 November 2011. However this first single failed to enter the popularity charts. The second single from this album was "Al Fin Te Encontré", which was released online by the record company the first week of October 2011, as well as being released on radio, making a slight impact during the first months. However, beginning in March 2012, the song began to gain a radio audience, returning to the charts and causing the company to delay the release of the next single.
On 25 June 2012, she released the second single, "Distancia". On 31 July of the same year, the video of her first single "Al Fin te encontré" was released on her official Vevo account, consisting of a live performance of the song. During the same period, several songs from her debut album were used as the soundtrack of the successful television series Soltera otra vez on Canal 13.
On 22 March 2014, Camila Silva was present at the first edition of the Daniel Zamudio Diversity Festival, a festival organized to commemorate the young homosexual man brutally murdered in 2012 and in favor of diversity in any field and promotion of non-discrimination, especially for LGBT people. Other Chilean artists who participated in this festival were Saiko, Gepe, Difuntos Correa, K-Réena, and Denise Rosenthal. [11] [12]
Silva's music is predominantly pop, although it includes acoustic sounds, including pop rock ballads. Love and amorous disappointments are the main themes used in her songs, which she writes herself. Her major musical influences are Lily Allen, Regina Spektor, and Francisca Valenzuela.
