Valeria Lynch was born on January 7, 1952, in the neighborhood of Villa Urquiza, Buenos Aires, Argentina, the first child of the marriage of María Antonia Spano (Tony) and José Julio Lancellotti.

In 1969, she debuted on the television show La Botica del Ángel with Eduardo Bergara Leumann, singing "Cuando un amigo se va".
Valeria Lynch formally began performing in the 1970s singing jingles and underground rock in English with a group called Expression.
The first major production Lynch took, was with producer Alejandro Romay in the adaptation of the musical Hair, held at the Teatro Argentino in 1971 where she put her voice to the song Aquarius-Let The Sunshine In.
From this Romay allegedly discovered her talent and suggested that she use a pseudonym.
She was also part of the TV TRIBU SRL, with which she recorded two songs for the soundtrack of the program, "I Am A Woman" and "Do Not Be Discouraged" as well as two different versions of the song" Tribu SRL "with the rest of the group, in 1975.
In 1976 she married Héctor Cavallero, who had discovered her around 1974 when she was singing in the underground clubs of Buenos Aires.
The story goes that Cavallero saw her sing and was so fascinated that he waited in the dressing room and offered to represent her and launch her career as a romantic singer.
In 1977 she released her first album, Valeria Lynch, and the cover was a drawing of her profile made by her friend Horacio Fontova.
Her version of the song Mujer Sola, written by the Italian Mia Martini (Domenica Berté), was the first cut of circulation.
Her debut as a pop balladeer was at the nightclub Michelangelo in the barrio of San Telmo.

In 1981, Valeria was in Mexico on a promotional tour and people from her record company suggested she audition for the rock opera Evita, directed by Harold Prince.
Mexican producers had chosen the Mexican Rocío Banquels, but Harold Prince was overwhelming in his statement that "in my music I want Valeria," so it was decided that the two were the protagonists.

In repeated statements to the press Harold Prince said: "Valeria Lynch was the best that I got to direct as Evita".
