Description
At just 22 years old, Daym� - a singer, arranger composer, and choir director is already a veteran presence in Cuban music, and is fast gaining international profile.She has been performing semi-professionally since the age of 8, and became lead singer with the big band Los Primos at 14. She has performed with Winton Marsalis, and was invited by the Canadian saxophonist Jane Bunnet to perform in Canada.
Recorded in just a few days in London and Havana Daym�'s debut album is a work of elegant maturity, showcasing Daym�'s mix of influences. Her background as a choir director is in evidence on the wonderful layered vocals on tracks like Nueva Era, Ni�o and Madres. Madres also alludes to the Santeria chanting that have formed part of Daym�'s worship since childhood.
