Jazz, folk, blues and world music all combine in the songs of Patricia Cano.
The singer and her trio of musicians are coming to the stage at the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts on Thursday, April 30.
She'll be delving into the repertoire of her debut album, This is the New World, which is made up mostly of original works alongside a few traditional pieces - in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese.
"Influences by South American folk forms such as Afro-Peruvian rhythms and samba, Patricia's music is driven by the groove of jazz, and the soul of folk and blues," a press release says. "On stage with her amazing trio of musicians, the energy that inhabits her is powerful to behold, and the breath, colour and textures of her voice change with every emotion expressed through her words and music."
