Singer, experimental composer and researcher of the Latin American voice, Argentina's Soema Montenegro mixes the sounds and images of the jungle and mountain landscapes with her original poetry, creating a new and unique voice in the current South American music scene.‘The fifth album by this Argentinian singer, poet and shaman is intoxicating … a passionate celebration of Latin music’ ★★★★ The Observer (November 2023)
‘From Caribbean rhythms to Mexican waltzes and Andean huayno, Montenegro synthesizes these traditional influences’ Bandcamp (The Best Folk Music on Bandcamp: October 2023)
Argentine folk/experimental artist Soema Montenegro describes her recent album Círculo Radiante, as an ‘embrace of territory’; an encompassing sonic ode to Latin American sounds, landscapes, and people. Born in the outskirts of Buenos Aires in 1979, she grew up between the countryside and the jungles, sparking a lifelong fascination between the connection of music and place. Known as the ‘shaman-poet’, she channels her voice into chant-like sounds that bestow respect to nature, echoing the traditions of ancestral communities. She will bring her solo acoustic set to The Rose Hill.
