El Primero by Juanita LalÓ & Friends
El Primero is an Album made only of original compositions. The sound is original, keeping editing to the minimum, portraying the instrument’s real texture to its fullest. Juanita LalÓ and all musicians involved in this Album are professional musicians usually active in the Jazz and Folk Music scene in Berlin.
Each of these songs tells a story about real people. In one particular case we want to shout out to the universe what is it about: Lazos Invisibles is for Thomas Stanger, and that fantastic conversation we had on that snowy afternoon, on that hill I (juanita) managed to climb, promising not to forget him. I never will.

Original Latin American beats like cumbia, salsa, porro, guajira and other Latin rhythms with resources and elements of jazz, funk and folk? Bringing together influences from Colombia, Japan and Germany? Anyone who knows Juanita Laló & Friends knows that it works. At the latest when the band moves the hall and makes it dance with their own composed music and some covers of well-known Latin hits.
