Taína Asili Duo

Puerto Rican vocalist Taína Asili and Sicilian guitarist Gaetano Vaccaro perform Latin America's best loved folk classics. Classically trained vocalist Taína Asili has shared the stage with renowned artists such as Sonia Sanchez, Paula Cole, and Tyrone Hill of The Sun Ra Arkestra. She has studied Flamenco with some of Spain's best contemporary Flamenco vocalists, including Alicia Gil and Esperanza Fernández.
Gaetano Vaccaro is a multi-instrumentalist of the most extraordinary breadth, with notable skill on guitar, bass, drums, saxophone, clarinet, flute, keyboards, and cello. He has studied under well-known jazz guitarists John Hilton and Pat Martino, and flamenco guitarists Miguel Angel Cortez and Francisco "El Pulga" Morales. In addition to his duet work Taína, Gaetano has put out two albums with hip hop/rock band Broadcast Live.
Canadian singer-songwriter Layah Jane is noted for her soulful vocals and poetic, political, articulate tongue. With a sound that recalls Joni Mitchell, Rickie Lee Jones and Ani Difranco, this folk-soul songstress tours with guitarist Oliver Johnson.
