New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Like a simmering plate of succulent seafood paella, Spain native
Grace Rodson is serving a mouth watering concoction of Latin flavors with her debut release "Samba in My Bones" from Global Media Group and JFM Records. Skillfully stirring the flavors of flamenco, Latin, funk, Celtic and yes, samba in her delectable pot seasoned with a pop music base, Rodson sizzles as an engaging new international artist with an enchanting look and sound.
"Samba in her Bones" is a tantalizing dish of nine original recipes for dance, straight from Rodson's heart. Performed with the intention to incite uninhibited movement, Rodson's luscious vocals carry the listener into a realm of whirling, syncopated rhythms. While the title track sways with Brazilian heat and intensity, moving sonic beats through the air, "Way of Life" is an uptempo concoction that sprinkles in a dash of fervent hip hop flow from UK rapper T. Smith. Rodson sweetens the offering with "It Will Rain," a seductive and sensual serenade that pulses, sways and swings with compassion. "Everything," another entree on the menu, is a beautiful ballad that renders strength and hope.
A native of Galicia, Spain, currently living in London,
Grace Rodson is a product of the music she was surrounded by as a child. "Galicia is a land of migrants. I grew up listening to salsa, cumbia, merinque and bachata." Expresses Grace, "My great-grandparents lived in Cuba and Texas, my aunties in Venezuela and Brazil, my grandparents, mother and uncle in Argentina. So I am a wonderful smorgasbord of Latin sound, dance and rhythm. 'Samba in My Bones' is a celebration of the diversity in the varied cultures around me with movement being the common denominator.
Music and dance are the essence of my expression. For me this project is a journey of my love stories and music is my ultimate love!"
