CD-DETAILS SHAKE AWAY [DOWNS, LILA] |
WEBSITE: www.liladowns.com
"Downs is a Mexican-American singer-songwriter who spellbinds with the ferocious sweep of her voice." - The Boston Globe
Exploring and expressing Mexico's rich culture has been a lifelong passion for vocalist Lila Downs. With a voice that is varied in color and range, Lila cuts a striking figure live as well - she embodies the spirit of her music with an emotion-drenched physicality. Lila's profile was raised significantly with her stunning performance in the hit film Frida, starring Salma Hayek in the title role. Lila also performed the Oscar-nominated song from the film at the Academy Awards ceremony, becoming the first Latina to perform at the telecast. Her new album Shake Away evokes her home country's rich folk-music legacy while pulsing with modern arrangements.
