| Ibeyi is the
self-titled debut album from Cuban-born, French-raised twins Lisa-Kainde
and Naomi Diaz. The daughters of Cuban percussionist Miguel "Angá" Diaz
(who was a performing member of the Buena Vista Social Club) and
Venezuelan mother Maya began making music upon their father's passing in
2006. After XL label boss Richard Russell caught their video for "Mama
Says," he tracked them down in Paris' Montparnasse neighborhood and
signed them. The recording is the first to come from the label's brand
new London studio. Ibeyi's sound is deliberately sparse, as reliant on
Santerian religious chants as it is on 21st century Euro soul.
Lisa-Kainde sings lead and plays piano; Naomi sings harmony and plays
West African drums -- cajón and batá -- both elemental parts of the
Afro-Cuban musical lineage. |
