Sofia on Latina Style Magazine: “Latinas who are forging strong identities as Latin jazz artists”March 23rd, 2010
“On the East Coast, one dynamic New York City-based artist is staking out a dramatically different stylistic persona in her quest to become a household name. Sofía Rei Koutsovitis, an Argentine composer and singer, is known for mixing the folkloric idioms of her country and such lands as Colombia into the flow of contemporary jazz styles. Sofía is banking on her singular vocal style and intimate familiarity with a wide range of Latin American folk music idioms to propel her to the next level. On her sonically bracing new album, Sube Azul, Sofía blends the soulful spirit of South America’s Nueva Canción movement with vocal improvisational techniques related to modern jazz on tracks that capture a wide range of moods, from the festive feel of the Afro-Peruvian-inspired works to the moody balladry.” Mark Holston-Latina Style Magazine Lots of traveling coming up!February 12th, 2010Visit the upcoming events section of the site to see where to catch our performances live.
