Quintet at Jazz Festival San Sebastian 2022:

Verónica Ferreiro & Javier Sánchez, two renowned musicians of the Spanish jazz scene, have got together to create CAMIÑO, a new musical project that transcends the genre. Halfway between classical music, folk and jazz, Verónica’s highly personal voice and galician lyrics (one of Spain’s regional languages that shares many singularities with portuguese) merges as if by magic with Javier’s refined compositions and arrangements.

Verónica’s musical journey boasts a remarkable track record, with acclaimed albums released as both a composer and performer. Notably, her debut album, LAIO, soared to the top spot in Jazz sales on iTunes Spain, while also gracing the Jazz lists of Mexico and Argentina. The album earned a coveted place in prestigious catalogues such as Dusty Groove America (Chicago) and Giant Step (NY). Her artistry has taken her to many renowned festivals like the Jazzharrean Festival in Vitoria or the illustrious Masters at work Festival in Bilbao.

For his part, Javier is a virtuoso guitar player renowned for his mesmerizing jazz improvisations. He has traversed a rich and fruitful career and is now poised to debut as a composer with this latest project, proving that he is not just a great musician but also a musical storyteller of the highest order.

As the driving force behind the enchanting gypsy quartet ‚Menil,‘ Javier has etched his name among the most celebrated gypsy jazz players in the Iberian panorama. In addition to his own projects, Javier presently finds himself as a part of the esteemed Cuban saxophonist Ariel Brínguez’s quintet.

The outcome is a brilliant recording which brings together intimacy and strength, electronic and symphonic sounds, folklore and avant-garde. Their compositions are a delicate balance between the familiar and the otherworldly, evoking a sense of nostalgia and humanness while also pushing the boundaries of imagination and artistic expression. CAMIÑO takes us into an introspective journey that begins with the profound emotions of childbirth and the transformative power of motherhood, rounded off with an apotheotic Requiem, a poignant lament for nature’s slow demise at the hands of men.

The album was produced by Troy Miller (Gregory Porter, Emeli Sandé, Laura Mvula and Jamie Cullum’s producer, among others). Troy also played the drums, percussion and synthesizers on the album. The album also features the City of London Sinfonia orchestra, which flawlessly plays Javier’s compositions and arrangements under Troy’s baton, as you can see on the
