About the album

Born in Honduras and raised in Sevilla, NYC-based singer/songwriter Eva Cortés delivers a revelatory set of flamenco and blues-tinged Latin jazz on her seventh release, "Crossing Borders." Working for the first time with producer, arranger, and trombonist Doug Beavers, Cortés brought together top-shelf New York musicians for the date, including Luques Curtis, Robby Ameen, Jon Cowherd, Pepe Rivero, Luisito Quintero, Roman Filiú, and a special appearance by bassist Christian McBride. Weaving together captivating original compositions and popular Latin American mainstays, Eva Cortés also adds a social footnote by dedicating the pulsating title track to the 500 lost lives of African refugees in an incident off the southern coast of Italy in 2013. "The new queen of Latin jazz has personality and everything it takes to deserve the title." - EL PAÍS, Spain.
Die in Honduras geborene und in Sevilla aufgewachsene Sängerin und Songwriterin Eva Cortés aus NYC liefert auf ihrer siebten Veröffentlichung "Crossing Borders" ein beeindruckendes Set aus Flamenco und bluesgeprägtem Latin Jazz. Cortés arbeitete zum ersten Mal mit dem Produzenten, Arrangeur und Posaunisten Doug Beavers zusammen und brachte New Yorker Spitzenmusiker für das Date zusammen, darunter Luques Curtis, Robby Ameen, Jon Cowherd, Pepe Rivero, Luisito Quintero, Roman Filiú und einen besonderen Auftritt Bassist Christian McBride. Eva Cortés, die faszinierende Originalkompositionen und populäre lateinamerikanische usik miteinander verbindet, fügt außerdem eine soziale Fußnote hinzu, indem sie den pulsierenden Titeltrack den 500 Toten afrikanischer Flüchtlinge widmet, die bei einem Zwischenfall vor der Südküste Italiens im Jahr 2013 ums Leben gekommen sind. "Die neue Königin des Latin Jazz hat Persönlichkeit und alles, was nötig ist, um den Titel zu verdienen." EL PAÍS, Spanien.
