Creology AUG SUMMER TOUR 2017

FROOTS REVIEW #CREOLOGY

"Souza, who also plays guitar and an idiosyncratic Fender Rhodes, cultivates a playful vocal style that defies easy categorisation. Ranging from feathery to earthy - Billie Holiday, Nina Simone, Dinah Washington, Sarah Vaughan and Peggy Lee come variously to mind, all very different singers, to be sure - but no comparision does Souza justice."She projects a conversational, hard bop scat sensibility that is sui generis..."

#Creology Review @vrijegeluiden+Concerts Amsterdam (NL)

#Creology was highlighted in this week new releases review by @vrijegeluiden

"Creology (Galileo Music) - Carmen Souza ft. Theo Pascal

Carmen Souza herken je altijd meteen aan haar dichtgeknepen hoge stem, die soms spint als een kat en soms heerlijke vrije val maakt naar de lage bastonen. Ze klinkt heel intiem alsof ze in je oor staat te zingen. Van het begin van haar carrière, 14 jaar terug, werkt de Kaapverdiaanse zangeres met de Portugese bassist en arrangeur Theo Pascal. Ze zijn bedreven in het verwerken van traditionele Kaapverdiaanse en Cubaanse ritmes in hun moderne jazzarrangementen. Met dit album zijn ze een stapje verder gegaan. Ze volgen een trans-Atlantische route van de Portugese ex-koloniën van Kaapverdië, Mozambique, Angola, de oceaan overstekend naar Brazilië en Cuba naar en New Orleans. Creology is kortom een muzikale kijk op de geschiedenis van slavernij en kolonisatie. Niet droevig of boos, maar mooi en vrolijk. CC"

ENG: "... "Creology is a musical view of the history of slavery and colonization. Not sad or angry, but beautiful and cheerful. CC" 

Carmen Souza, Theo Pascal and Elias Kacomanolis will be presenting #Creology in Amsterdam

LIVE REVIEWS:

"Portoghese ma di origini capoverdiane, Carmen Souza (chitarra, piano e voce) assieme a Theo Pascal (basso elettrico e contrabbasso) ed Elias Kacomanolis (batteria e percussioni), ha letteralmente entusiasmato il pubblico accorso numeroso all’Hotel Miramare innanzitutto per un timbro ed una tecnica vocale unici, assieme ad una magnifica ampiezza della sua voce. E poi per la sua musica, capace di creare un tessuto armonico in cui le influenze musicali di Capoverde si fondono con quelle afro-brasiliane, cubane, fino ad arrivare al jazz di New Orleans...." Strill.it

"Portuguese but of caboverdian origins, Carmen Souza (guitar, piano and voice) together with Theo Pascal (electric bass and double bass) and Elias Kacomanolis (drums and percussion), literally impressed the numerous guests at Hotel Miramare first for a stamp and A unique vocal technique, along with a magnificent amplitude of its voice. And then for her music, capable of creating a harmonious fabric in which the musical influences of Cabo verde blend with African-Cuban, Cuban, until they arrive at New Orleans jazz...."Strill.it
