NEW YORK (Brooklynx & Sobs Official Websites) - Ely Guerra returns to New York with two performances. The first will be at Celebrate Brooklyn's Budweiser Latin Music Series with ELY GUERRA / SI*S� / JUMBO. This event is presented in collaboration with the Latin Alternative Music Conference & supported by The Mexican Cultural Institute of New York and AeroMexico. The second is an intimate, late night set at SOB's in downtown Manhattan.

Friday, AUGUST 9th � 7:30 PM (Brooklyn - www.brooklynx.org) & 11:45 PM (SOB's - www.sobs.com)

Holding the #1 spot for the past 3 consecutive weeks on the CMJ (College Music Journal) N* Alternative college radio chart, Ely Guerra continues to entice listeners with her first U.S. CD release Lotofire.
Her music is a blend of alternative rock, trip-hop, drum n' bass, Brazilian beats with melodic guitar riffs. Her songs reveal a fiery commitment to herself as well as to the world; her provocative lyrics are alight with solitude, hope, nostalgia, and her own spiritual outlook.

Musically and lyrically provocative, the album is backed by outstanding musicians. Among others, string virtuoso Chris Whitley charmed the CD with the sinewy magic of his National Dobro slide guitar; David Sardy worked his magic on his guitar; as well as experimental rock guitarist Marc Ribot, percussionist Larry Mullins, Vinicius Cantuaria on Brazilian percussion, and musician/producer Arto Lindsay served as a friend and consultant during the recording.

People are listening, and they love what they hear. Tracks from Lotofire, as well as other compositions, have been included on several compilations, including the Oscar-nominated film Amores Perros soundtrack with "Dime Cuando Comenzo El Dolor," the Tribute to Los Tigres Del Norte with "La Tumba Falsa," and the indie Mexican movie De La Calle with the title track. Ely also brought Chilean rock band La Ley much delight when Ely's collaboration on the track "El Duelo" on their MTV Unplugged album became a Billboard Hot Latin Tracks chart topper.

Lotofire also features tracks such as In her drum �n' bass track "Yo No" (Not Me), where Ely focuses on violence against women, and the funky track "Tengo Frio" where Ely sings of "lonely nights" and freezing to death
