She’s from Argentina (currently living in LA) with Creole/ Italian/ Catalonian roots. A veteran singer, songwriter, guitarist exploring Argentine folk music, including tango, zamba, chacarera, and other rhythms (read the informative notes for full disclosure). All fairly low key, just her voice & guitar, some light perc, flutes, bandoneon, backing vocals. She’s got a clear, warm alto and is a skilled Latin guitarist. Everything play-worthy, you can’t go wrong. 1. Relaxed folk dance w/vocal duet & light perc. Sweet. 2. Bouncy w/great harmonies of strings & voices. So nice. 3. Deliciously, tragically romantic tango. Slow, soft, fragile. 4. Sweet, lazy blend of harp/guitar/vocals. Picks up a bit at end. 5. Spare, dramatic, indigenous sound. Solo drum/vox/pipes. 6. Bright & upbeat dance. Strings, pipes, claps, vox. Joyous & catchy 7. Slow and passionate w/a hint of reflection & nostalgia. Lovely. 8. Upbeat & light w/a sweet, tripping rhythm & melody. 9. Graceful vocal duet. Down/midtempo. Lots of harp action. 10. Modern tango w/emotional vocals & good strings/bandoneon. 11. Midtempo folk dance w/vocal duet. Nicely elegant. 12. Jingle bells in a Christmas song. Midtempo & bright. 13. Uptempo folk dance. Makes you wish you knew the steps. Lively 14. Lazy, watltz-like love song w/a simple but charming feeling. 15. Sad & dramatic w/dark vocal harmonies & melody. 16. Catchy, toe-tapping folk dance. Bright. 17. Midtempo & nicely melodic w/strong vocals/strings. | ||
