i was born in havana, cuba. i've lived in chicago, new york, miami, and now make my home in philadelphia. i've worked with tim motzer and king britt on my song La Vida, of which, there are 3 versions. the original being my favorite. most recently, i've just completed a new project with producer tim motzer called nucultures - butterflies, zebras, and moonbeams. i'm so thrilled with this record, i sing 10 songs along with contributions by tim motzer and barry meehan...and wonderful guest musicians like john swana, helena epsval, jeremy carlstedt, chris cuzme, and others...i'll be posting some of my new tunes up above in the coming weeks for you to check out. also, the album is not officially out yet, but if you want a copy write to me here. it's $15. it will be soon out, and also at all the digital places too. if you're in philadelphia, you can buy a copy at aka music on second street. it's a double album with 21 songs, and beautiful artwork by thomas schmid. that's all for now. i hope you love the record. we'll be working on our live show in the next few months, and maybe do a few little underground gigs around philly. we plan on doing a big show by september. meanwhile, i've begun finishing tracks and writing a few new ones for my solo album...lot's more to come. thanks for stopping by!
bye, ellie
