Camila Meza Biography

"A bright young singer and guitarist with an ear for music of both folkloric and pop intention" New York Times "Camila Meza is a vocalist and guitarist from Chile, based in New York. She has very good chances indeed of becoming far more widely known. She presented a well-judged and confidently presented combination of Brazil, songwriting, mainstream modern jazz, and - not least - charm." London Jazz News "Chilean jazz vocalist and guitarist Camila Meza began with Hendrix and Joni Mitchell but caught the jazz bug when she discovered Pat Metheny and never looked back. She came to voice from guitar, encouraged by the teacher who taught Claudia Acuna, and a vocal style crystallized around the sound of a hollow body. She has performed alongside luminaries Aaron Goldberg, Ryan Keberle, and pianist Fabian Almazan, who is part of her quartet. Meza deftly imbues arrangements of songs recorded by Al Jarreau, Victor Jara, and Billie Holiday with a folkloric pulse, sometimes in odd time signatures, at once rooted in tradition yet fiercely modern." Village Voice "In the old days, a singing voice could make you fall in love. Camila Meza can still pull this off. Her voice is absolutely beautiful. A bouquet of flowers from an artist with big things ahead..." - Marc Myers/JazzWax "Ms. Meza voices, in pure and lovely tones..." Wall Street Journal "... enchanting guitarist/vocalist Camila Meza. A Chilean native who’s worked with John Benitez and Bucky Pizzarelli, Meza broadcasts jazz and funk sensibilities through a hollow-body guitar, and the results make you want to hear much, much more" -Nippertown "A haunting voice" Jazz Times "Meza has a rich voice that’s playful without being too syrupy. She manages to make the music sound fresh with her obvious enthusiasm and her emotional connection with the songs." Jason Crane, The Jazz Session "Camila approaches songs with a zest and poetic innocence that gives them fresh life and intelligence." Marc Myers, Jazz Wax "Jazz has been called 'The Sound of Surprise' and Camila Meza surprises with her unexpected conceptions of the beautiful songs she sings, the freshness of her improvisations, her bold rhythmic sense, and the interaction of her voice and guitar with the musicians of her band" Martin Joseph, El Mercurio. www.camilameza.com Follow on twitter: www.twitter.com/camilamezamusic Suscribe to videos! www.youtube.com/camilamezajazz Instagram: @camilamezamusic
