In his broken voice, piano keys that accompany their cries, there is a hypnotic mystery. Benjamin Clementine (London, 1988) is a difficult riddle to decipher, which was enjoyed in Cartagena, the Sea of Music 2014 in his first performance in Spain.

When speaking English musician Benjamin Clementine, speaking mainly in its history: how he left school at 16, he had an encounter with his family and escaped from Edmonton to end homeless in Camden;
About two years later, in Paris, he slept on the streets, before living in a hostel.
As much as he dislikes just ask him about it, Clementine supports the importance of this experience, living on the street, in his music and, above all, his singing, which still resonates despair of those days .
Despite his repeated comparison by music critics with Nina Simone, the theatricality of his performances and his style is all his own.
It is the beginning of many advertised as a big one.
Care, it sounds so beautiful it's hard not to fall in love, she told Santiago Auserón Diego Manrique in an interview about the singer Silvia Perez Cruz.
And it must be true, they still heard raves about this creature born in Calella de Palafrugell (Girona) in 1983. Superlatives come from jazz, flamenco, film, dance ...
Silvia has several gifts, singing as they should do the sirens and generates an unlimited empathy is fresh and captivating, warm and enveloping, and has an enviable expertise in diverse languages ​​and styles.
Besides vocal exuberance that astonishes.
You can get anywhere, savor the songs as if she were a full orchestra or choir.
