Gaby Moreno is a bilingual singer-songwriter from Guatemala, but now resides in Los Angeles. "Y Tu Sombra" is from her recently released album 'Illustrated Songs'. It has a vintage sound that also brings Bossa Nova to mind. This song may be in Spanish, but that only adds to it's unique beauty. In a time of auto-tune and manufactured hits (which isn't new), it is great to hear a young artist creating beautiful songs in an older style, but still managing to sound contemporary. And finally, she has a voice that could melt *semi-soft butter.
We can finally say Guatemala, without mentioning Dr Ropata.
*semi-soft butter is the hardest fucking butter you can buy... and the manufacturers call it spreadable.
