Guatemalan artist, sings in both English (E) and Spanish (S). Total mix: everything from typical boleros, to blues, to rock. Cabaret style dominates. For fans of Fiona Apple, Beirut, Julieta Venegas. Try 2,3. FCC Clean. 1.3:30, S. Mid-tempo, cabaretish, sappy. Vocal work is very grand, bolero-ish †2.3:26, E. Blues. Groovy beat, slick brass in chorus and dramatic hoarse vocals. †3.2:50, S. Ballad, cross between bolero and cabaret. Retro, very Fiona Apple. 4. 4:20, S. French brass, again the cabaret theme, but very show-y. Circus music, with sardonic “Ha, ha!” in chorus. Wind and orchestration: best part. 5. 3:35, E. Cabaret, circus-y. I promise, this sounds exactly like something by Danny Elfman crossed with the these song of The Aristocats. 6. 0.49. Instrumental cabaret/acoustic guitar interlude. 7. 4:04, S. Dusty Americana. Bluesy and downtempo. Slide guitar, remorseful. 8. 4:18, S. Midtempo, bluesy guitar. Feel good mellow rocker. 9. 5:01, E. Bluesy soul rocker. Independent, womanly vocals. Joss Stone-ish but less powerful. 10. 4:26, S. Dusty, downtempo. Bass, slow guitar plucking. Builds, then tapers. 11. 2:24, S/E. Bossa. Reminiscent of Natalia LaFourcade, downtempo, cooing. 12. 2:40, E. Uptempo cabaret piano line with just the voice. Fiona Apple-ish. | ||
