YUSA
(Cuba)

Confirmed tour in Europe in mid-March / mid-April 2015

VIDEOS:
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)
