MARTA GOMEZ

Monday, February 18 at 7:30 PM

From Cali, Colombia, singer-songwriter Marta Gomez crafts genuine songs with hooks that can transport even non-Spanish-speakers into the heart of her anthemic refrains and irresistible rhythms. Marta and her group perform a repertoire of original compositions based on a vast amount of rhythms from Latin America. On her songs, Marta mixes the joy of the Caribbean with the nostalgia of the Andes adding jazz and pop elements, taking the authenticity of South American indigenous folk music into a hip new realm.

Tonight Marta celebrates the release of her fifth recording, "Musiquita". This new project reflects the steady growth of an artist who, while deepening her art, maintains her own strong identity. On "Musiquita", Marta expands her vocal vocabulary, enlarging her unique sound to include percussive vocal improvisation and soaring vocals. Her arrangements have become more sure and years of worldwide concert touring have solidified the sound of her band. But it's Marta's unique voice, the quality and the simplicity that she draws from the bittersweet stories of the people of Latin America that remains intact on "Musiquita". $15

"One of my favorite bands ... a timeless and original gem. It's as if George Harrison
never left India." - Nic Harcourt, music supervisor and KCRW DJ

"One of the best bands to come out of America in years." - Sunday Times (UK)

"A solid album of slightly melancholic pop songs built around a solid core of vocal melodies and compelling instrumentation." - Popmatters.com

"Delirious and delicious" - Vogue (INDIA)

"Superbly Measured" - Q (UK)

From New Delhi to New Jersey, Goldspot's sophomore LP, And the Elephant Is Dancing, seamlessly fuses the cross-cultural influences of frontman Siddhartha Khosla's upbringing into an infectious pastiche of indie-pop nuggets. The follow-up to the critically acclaimed debut, Tally Of The Yes Men, is available now worldwide on iTunes.

Co-produced by Khosla and Beach Boys engineer Jeff Peters, this album is the culmination of Khosla's upbringing in New Jersey listening to an eclectic mix of Bollywood oldies and Western rock bands. The 11-song collection was inspired by "Mohammed Rafi, R.E.M., Kishore Kumar, and The Beatles," and evokes sunny California pop, 1960s Indian films and George Harrison's psychedelia-tinged work. $12
