INFO ABOUT THE LEADER:
Luisa Annibali is one of the leading lights in the newest generation of jazz musicians on the Dublin jazz scene. Having moved from Rome to Dublin in 2016, she has quickly established herself in the scene with her boundless enthusiasm and vocal prowess. Performing both in Ireland and Italy, she blends music from her native Italy with Brazilian tinges and contemporary jazz making ample room for her distinctive voice to shine through.
Her tracks ‘My Own Paradise’ and ‘I Could Melt’ are a perfect example of her own personal take on jazz music, mixing feminist themes in her lyrics with contemporary jazz undertones reminiscent of artists such as Esperanza Spalding and Gretchen Parlato. The music feels fresh and cutting edge while never losing sight of its roots in the jazz standard repertoire.
Her lyrics are often focused on self development and self love. With her performances she brings the audience throughout a joyful, inspiring and uplifting musical and emotional journey of empowerment and consciousness.
