Yusa
is a Cuban singer and composer born in La Havana. Her music is defined
as modern, echoing funk, jazz, rap and soul, but also keeping deep
connections with African and Caribbean heritage, including son, rumba
and trova. Yusa
splits her time between Cuba, where she is regularly contracted for
recordings, concerts and as a jury at the music conservatory (due to the
fact that she is a specialist of Cuban guitar, tres) and Argentina. She
tours all over South America, Japan (every year she is invited for a
series of concerts at the prestigious Cotton Club in Tokyo) and Europe.
Yusa has had a fruitful career. She has
won a Cubadisco Award, has been nominated at the Awards for World Music
in the categories of “Best Hope” and “Best Latin American artist”, and
won – along with Brazilian artist Lenine – a Latin Grammy for the album In Cité
in Paris recorded at the Cité de la Musique. Described as a musician
with “overwhelming charisma” (Francis Dordor, Les Inrocks) and far from
the stereotypes, Yusa is a musician who embodies the sound of Cuba in
the 21st century.
YUSA has five albums to his credit, all recorded in Cuba: Yusa (2002), Breathe (2005), Haiku (2008), In Vivo (2010) and Libro de cabecera (2012).
Team: 2 ou 4 people (solo ou trio)
