Argentine Vocalist-Composer SOFIA REI Releases DE TIERRA Y ORO
Building
on the success of her Independent Music Award-winning second release
Sube Azul, vocalist Sofia Rei returns with her spellbinding new CD De
Tierra Y Oro (“Of Earth and Gold”) set for release on Oct 29th on her
own Cascabelera label via Lilihouse Music. Rei describes the album as a
series of “philosophical wanderings” — songs that draw on a wide range
of South American folkloric influences and bracingly modern jazz sounds,
with Rei’s powerful voice in the forefront. Rei produced the album with
her longtime bassist and collaborator Jorge Roeder and co-producer
Fabrice Dupont.The
textures run the gamut of contemporary to traditional: from layered and
effects-treated vocals, electric guitars, loops and drum machines to
Bolivian charangos, Paraguayan harps, Colombian marimbas, Argentine
bombos, Peruvian cajones and more. Rei’s vibrant multi-tracked vocals
and use of reverbs, delays and harmonizers make De Tierra Y Oro a bold
departure from her previous work. Singing in Spanish, Rei tells stories
that reflect her diverse travels and experiences: a cock fight in
Cartagena, a nightmare in Buenos Aires, a love letter in New York, a
haunted man in the Andes. In De Tierra Y Oro we encounter Latin American
myths and icons, loneliness and laughter, religious doubt, political
protest, true love.
Challenging
the concept of South American music by infusing it with elements of
jazz, improvisation and electronic sounds, Sofia Rei continues to set
herself apart with a bold new vision in the global music scene.

“…highly
capable of integrating diverse influences, from ancient folkloric
traditions to modern jazz […] Sofia’s all Spanish vocals convey deep
passion and a full spectrum of emotions”
– Downbeat Magazine
“Sofia's vocal prowess contains an emotional impact that leaves an audience gasping for air and begging for more.”
-The Latin Jazz Corner
