About this Event
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, she has quickly established herself in the scene with her boundless enthusiasm and vocal prowess.
Performing in Ireland, Italy and Brazil, with her original project she blends music from her native Italy with Brazilian tinges and contemporary jazz making ample room for her distinctive voice to shine through.
Her new album LIBERA is the 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.
Indeed, it is also the encounter between people from different cultures and musical influences that makes her music and her performances so unique.
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.
With her latest single WE ARE ONE represent for the artist an anthem to PEACE, EQUALITY, and HUMAN DIGNITY. It reminds me — and maybe all of us — that even small, conscious acts can spark change. I’m still learning this myself, asking what it truly means to act, to care, to use our own voices, to keep the heart open.
