Juana Molina was just written up in The New York Times, perhaps more people will be aware of her unique sound. David Byrne, former Talking Head has been a long fan after hearing her first Cd, "Secondo." David had Juana appear as his opening act in 2004. Juana has recently released, a wild, crazy, beautiful Cd, "Son." Listen to some songs from Juanas' My Space Page. This is what she had to say about her sound on, "Son." "When I started to write the songs for this record Son, a new element that may have been hidden for a long time appeared; the randomness of the combination of sounds in nature. Each bird has a particular singing; nevertheless this singing is always different. It is not a pattern; its a drawing, a sound and a mode, only a few elements that each bird combines in a new way each time. In the same way, sometimes I chose to sing a melodic drawing I develop for the song. Verses are alike, but never the same (rios seco, no seas antipática) other times I chose to sing a repetitive melody."
