Events Description
Presented by Small World Music and Lula Music and Arts Centre
Accordion-wielding Chilean songstress Pascuala Ilabaca is a true hidden gem. A favourite on the vibrant scene of young Chilean singer-songwriters, her music is rooted in traditional sounds but effortlessly integrates shades of jazz, pop, and rock, with influences gathered from places as distant as India and Mexico.
Accompanied by her formidable band Fauna, Ilabaca’s unique stage presence conjures up sweetness and empowerment while simultaneously setting her songs alive with both fragility and verve. Her performance bridges the folkloric roots of the Andes with a contemporary global edge.
About the Artist:
Pascuala Ilabaca is a singer-songwriter hailing from Valparaiso, Chile. Her debut album, Pascuala Canta a Violeta, was released in 2008, featuring her arrangements of legendary singer-songwriter Violeta Parra’s songs.
In 2010, Ilabaca received the Guitarpin de Oro prize at the Festival del Huaso de Olmué, and by 2012, she had completed her first two European tours. In 2013, Ilabaca and her band Fauna were the Audience Award winners for Best World Beat Album at the Independent Music Awards. They have graced prestigious stages worldwide, including the Music and Politics Festival in Berlin, Barnasants Festival in Barcelona, and the London Jazz Festival.
Her career reached new heights in 2016 when she received the Pulsar Prize, the most important Chilean music industry award.
