Description
The 5th studio album of Chilean Folk Virtuoso, Nano Stern, "Mil 500 Vueltas".
With "Mil 500 Vueltas", Nano has decided to feature Uruguayan legend Jorge Drexler and international folk music icon and social activist Joan Baez (USA). The album also features guest vocalist performances by Marta Gomez (Colombia), Susana Baca (Peru) & Pedro Aznar (Argentina).
Nano Stern's path as an artist follows richly crafted song lines laid by his family and his Chilean musical ancestry, and unites those with a sound utterly fresh and relevant. Nano has found something within that has positioned him as the voice of a generation.
Chilean Nueva Canción legends like Inti-Illimani and Victor Jara- who suffered exile and even death during troubling times in Chile continue to inspire Nano's breadth of sound and emotion.
When only fifteen, Nano joined popular Chilean underground band, Mattoral, and thus was initiated into the fresh, new sounds and socio-political pulse of the South American rock/punk scene. The thick rock- energy of Matorral, his classical and jazz training, and the powerful influence of traditional, Chilean revolutionary music make for something purely Nano.
What has emerged is a powerhouse artist, brilliantly layering indigenous, African, and European elements into a sound all his own, and humbly bringing audiences to tears, to their feet, and to reverie with a singular kind of emotion and soulfulness unlike any other South American artist performing today. "I'm generally working to create a language of my own," he says. The world emphatically agrees.
"Nano Stern is an enlightened man, but not one of the arrogant ones. He knows it, but he shares it. His gift is as much his as it is his audience´s, and it shines on a brilliant history that is still on the rise." - Maria de los Angeles Cerda, Music Journalist, Santiago, Chile
"Nano Stern is a huge talent, whether he is playing as a duo at an intimate show, hosting and entertaining the crowd about Chilean Wine, or playing the big stage with his outstanding band, you know he is an artist the audience always wants to hear more from..." Paula Henderson, Artist Programmer, WOMAD UK.
"An intelligent and mercurial young man, Stern's thing involves non-stop touring across the globe, and a commitment to youth and grassroots musicianship. A humble and affable young man, Stern does not take his success for granted." - Tony Hillier, Music Journalist, Australia
"Nano Stern's sings with all the pains and passion of the Chilean people and their history. His voice reaches to the depth of your soul, while resonating with the humanity in all of us." - Randy Raine-Reusch, Artistic Director, Canada
"young Nano Stern is a live phenomenon". - Andrew Cronshaw, Music Journalist, London, UK
