Decca
Reviewed 2017-08-15
Spanish singer/songwriter with a beautiful alto voice and an international band featuring members from Africa, Europe, the US, and Latin America. Her music is equally diverse with elements of pop, jazz, flamenco, and Arabic music. In Spanish with a few English phrases thrown in. She’s now based in NYC. It’s all pretty low key but has a light touch and it’s all well done.

*1. A lovely ballad with sweet strings and a lightly jazzy air.
2. Soft vocals, a gentle and delicate ballad.
3. Strings back another ethereal ballad.
4. Relaxed with some really good work on guitar/bass/cello.
*5. Accordion adds a hint of French café to this sweet ballad.
*6. Slow with crystal-pretty vocals.
7. Slow cello & dramatically emotive vox. Rather cinematic.
8. Flamenco clapping leads into a relaxed & warm tune.
*9. Low key but sweet and bright. Pretty.
10. In English, a lazy ballad.
*11. Andalusian-infused & Fado-esque.
