This hybrid musical journey departs from Andalucía, Spain with a layover in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and a final landing in Brooklyn, New York. Flamenco with hints of Brazil and the Caribbean.
A unique mixture of styles and artists, only possible in a place like New York City.
Today, Martinez spends time doing a lot of singing for flamenco dance companies like Carlota Santana Flamenco Vivo, Pasion y Arte, A Palo Seco, Sol y Sombra and often with Juanito Pascual in Boston. She also performs as a soloist, sometimes with a full sextet of flamenco and jazz musicians, and sometimes in smaller formats. This is a lush and eclectic repertoire of flamenco, Latin, Sephardic, Middle Eastern and jazz, always interspersed with dance. These past few years of performing in jazz venues over the years with this group are culminating, as we speak, in a recording production that will hopefully do justice to this unique sound.
