Leal Valerosa by Nara Vaez
Leal Valerosa is Club Latino with a Brazilian twist. Between hard post reggaeton dance floor drums, Nara Vaez takes you on a journey through historical references. Leal Valerosa is a multicultural figure that builds courage, vision and creativity as she understands the unique power of being born in the southernmost place of South America. Leal Valerosa has a very intimate and personal atmosphere
-and yet a very public and collective message-:
Leal Valerosa is a tribute to the ethnic melting pot of Latin America.
It's a tribute to all children of recent migration, to all the clandestinos, para aquellos que no son ní de aqui ní de allá. To all untold, confused and erased stories. Leal Valerosa is a tribute to where Nara Vaez comes from. As Nara searches for less popular historical points of view of the PLATINA region (between Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay and Argentina) she starts to unfold a new perception of the past that allows her to also perceive a different future as Latin American.
"Mui Leal Valerosa" means Very Loyal and Brave, written in a dialect called PORTUÑOL (portuguese and spanish) and is the emblem of the city Nara Vaez was born in. As she starts creating, history blends with imagination and Nara Vaez takes you on the narrative, building a sonic altar full of imagery and symbolism of the Platina Region.
The almost mythological figure of the Gaucho is the catalyzer that builds up courage and purpose for Leal Valerosa. The Brazilian Funk-Techno-Arabic-Reggaeton is the album’s first song "GAUCHO ARABE (vai cavala)". It sets the tone of experimentation: references that might seem distant from one another merge naturally as they are intimate to her. And as they all make you dance.
Leal Valerosa doesn't look back; it carries new meaning to our history, refreshes our imagery as it looks straight ahead to the future.
