Marina Heredia
Marina Heredia is one of the young promises of flamenco. She belongs to the new generation of artists that look at themselves with the old cantaores as a reference, who return to traditionalism. However, at the same time she is a multi-faceted artist who is as happy to perform in Espárrago Rock (a music festival that welcomes all sorts of musical styles, and is held yearly in Granada since 1993), in which she took part in 1998, as she is intervening in an opera (Amore, by Mauricio Sotelo). Likewise, she has worked with musicians who have nothing to do with flamenco: Howie B (the producer for U2, among others), Robbie McIntosh (guitarist for The Pretenders and Paul McCartney), Trevor Morais (who works with Björk) and Elkie Brooks, a white singer with a black woman´s voice.
After some childhood recordings, Marina Heredia started to sing as a backing artist for people like Miguel Ängel Cortés and La China. She even came to substitute Carmen Linares in the company of María Pagés. Her voice has been heard in the most important flamenco festivals and biennial exhibitions, and in the tributes that have been held for Lorca ("Buscando a Lorca") and Camarón ("El flamenco es universal"). She recorded her first record, "Me duele, me duele", in the year 2000, and it was produced by Pepe de Lucía. Read more on Last.fm.
