Sanda Weigl, born and raised in Rumania, by now living in New York, made her mark with unique interpretations of Rumaneian Folk and Gypsy songs, hovering between tradition, jazz and improvisation, being by turn enigmatic, sad, merry or wistful. Sanda’s unmistakably powerful voice is her trademark and resonates throughout every one of the melodies on this album.

Her new sound here is less folkloric than minimal and transparent. The songs on this new album hail mostly from the urban gypsy music. They are love and drinking songs, doinas, horas, all full of beautiful metaphors.
