Karen Sotomayor

Powerful & soulful vocals in an eclectic mix of rock charged with strong dynamics and varied tempos. A good party vibe CD! "I'm charged creatively and ready to experiment!" After a long sabbatical from music I started writing and recording again sometime around 1999. I came to the conclusion that I had to do a lot of things myself. Being an independent performing singer/songwriter, I put my first solo demo together singing & playing all the instruments, called it Project Uno.
Late 50's early 60's sounding song which reminds me of Roy Orbison or a darker version of the Everly Brothers. Tribal drums, harmony vocals and 60's production values, with the drums and vox highest in the mix. The vocal melody is really nice and even though the song has a simplistic structure, it keeps it's interest to the end. Otherwise a cool track.
