ONE OF THE FEW DONT MISS SOLO ACTS TO COME THROUGH TOWN THIS YEAR -Creative Loafing
Its not everyday that a first generation Cuban American, finesses a glass slide along the strings of her acoustic guitar with her foot stomping in time to the swampiest groove this side of the Mississippi Delta, but that is exactly how Nini Camps takes the stage to play SLIDE, the lead off track from her sophomore release, SO LONG. Dont be mislead however, into thinking that bluesy slide work is the only thing this New York City based, independent, singer, songwriter, guitarist has to offer. Musically, she goes beyond the conventions of todays popular music fearlessly blurring the lines of pop, country, folk and rock to create a sound that is as diverse as it is powerful. While influenced by such powerful writers as Lucinda Williams, Bruce Springsteen and Patty Griffin, it is Ninis ability to effortlessly tap into her Cuban heritage and the likes of the late Celia Cruz, that her unique combination of old and new, Cuban and American is borne.
Currently writing for Cherry Lane Music Publishing, Nini has toured all over the US, London Canada and Germany (as the US representative for the World Cup Music Festival).
