  • Description

    LASPERANZA is the brainchild of UK producer/musician Rico Garofalo. Since beginning his career as a sax player he has always dreamed of creating an album on which he would reimagine and reconfigure some of his favourite soul/jazz songs from the Seventies and Eighties. "Seeds" is the result.

    "I wanted to change the arrangements, either from a rhythmic or harmonic aspect, while always keeping a soul/jazz flavour to give the songs a new lease of life, rather than just a fresh lick of paint".

    Lead single "It Should Have Been You", featuring vocalist Izzy Chase, is a sultry mid-tempo reinvention of a Gwen Guthrie disco era tune, while other songs newly reimagined for 2019 include "Early Morning Love" (Lou Rawls), "Under The Moon And Over The Sky" (Angela Bofill), "Working Day and Night" (Michael Jackson), "Give Me The Night" (George Benson), "Kilimanjaro" (Letta Mbulu) and "In The Mood" (Tyrone Davis).

    Eight UK vocalists - and one American - are featured on the album.

    The band will be playing select live dates in the UK this summer.
