Description

Marta Gomez

“A Remarkable New talent with a sublime voice”-The LA Times“Her voice is a marvelous mixture of spritely and melancholy”-World Music Central“The essence of Latin Cool”-Billboard Magazine “Her Music is strong as so is her voice."-The Village Voice“Marta has the unique capacity of turning the bitter history of her native country into sweet music”-Steve Inskeep, NPR From Cali, Colombia, singer-songwriter Marta Gomez crafts genuine songs with hooks that can transport even non-Spanish-speakers into the heart of her anthemic refrains and irresistible rhythms. Marta and her group perform a repertoire of original compositions based on a vast amount of rhythms from Latin America. On her songs, Marta mixes the joy of the Caribbean with the nostalgia of the Andes adding jazz and pop elements, taking the authenticity of South American indigenous folk music into a hip new realm. Tonight Marta celebrates the release of her fifth recording, "Musiquita". This new project reflects the steady growth of an artist who, while deepening her art, maintains her own strong identity. On "Musiquita", Marta expands her vocal vocabulary, enlarging her unique sound to include percussive vocal improvisation and soaring vocalese. Her arrangements have become more sure and years of worldwide concert touring have solidified the sound of her band. But it's Marta's unique voice, the quality and the simplicity that she draws from the bittersweet stories of the people of Latin America, that remains intact on "Musiquita".More Info at Joe's Pub
