AFROTAINO Presents: Maria José Llergo - CANCELLED
City Winery Philadelphia presents AFROTAINO Presents: Maria José Llergo live in concert on March 19th at 7:30pm
As the soul and free verse of what is called “cante” in Spain, María José Llergo (Pozoblanco, 1994) knows exactly whats she is doing and what she wants. A young woman whos nomadic spirit flees from styles and clichés without renouncing to her flamenco and Andalusian roots.
While always respectful to the tradition inherent in her, her music is not afraid of a metamorphosis that embraces the avant-garde. A latent chrysalis that generates beautiful butterflies in the form of songs that shock deeply. She knows how to display a torrent of sensitivity deeply influenced by Lorca, with the boldness and freshness of the most current sounds. Her secret is to sing from the gut to the heart. A hurricane of emotions through a sweet voice that makes skin crawl. Honesty and brutal vitality is her non-negotiable artistic commitment. A unique character with the ability to surprise and transcend.
