South-Asian vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and composer Ganavya releases her new studio album “Like the sky I've been too quiet” on Shabaka Hutchings’ Native Rebel Recordings. The album features contributions from artists including Kofi Flexxx, Floating Points, Carlos Niño, Leafcutter John and Mercury-nominated bassist Tom Herbert.
Since graduating from Berklee College of Music, UCLA and Harvard, Ganavya has quickly become a much-in-demand artist on the US scene who consistently confounds expectations. Hailed as “among modern music's most compelling vocalists” (Wall Street Journal), “most enchanting” (NPR) and "extraordinary" (DownBeat), Ganavya has worked with an array of luminaries including the likes of Quincy Jones, Wayne Shorter and Esperanza Spalding and on new album "Like the sky I've been too quiet" she presents thirteen compelling tracks which showcase her ethereal voice and numinous energy.

ニューヨーク生まれ、南インド育ち、カリフォルニア在住。1stアルバムは、ジャズ・スタンダードを地元タミル語に翻訳した作品という。すでにエスペランサ・スパルディングの録音に参加してたり、Wall Street JournalやNPRでも絶賛。
なんと言っても新アルバムが凄すぎたUK今ジャズのドン、シャバカ・ハッチングスのレーベルNative Rebel Recordingsから満を辞してのリリースに、やっぱりこの人もいたかのカルロス・ニーニョも参加。
南インド古典のボーカルスタイルを中心にバンスリ（竹笛）などインド古典の楽器も使いながらも、楽曲自体はいわゆる古典のようなルールに則った難解なものではなく、彼女の声を中心にした、空間多め / 音数少なめのプロダクション。フローティング・ポインツ参加という点からもダンス耳にもすんなり入れる不思議な心地よさ。いわゆるスピリチュアル・ジャズというものの最新型、もしくはビル・ラズウェルのような90`sエスノ・アンビエントのリバイバル的なものも感じます。Leaving Recordsからリリースで秒殺だったインディア・モジュラー奏者の Arushi Jainとまた違いも面白い。凄すぎます。。 (Shhhhh)
