"Gize" - world music at the pulse of time

This Ethiopian singer combines the musical traditions of her homeland with urban influences from jazz, reggae, soul and rhythm & blues. Carried by a fine groove, Feven Yoseph lets her voice float in casually flowing melodies. The songs, which she sings sometimes in English, sometimes in her native Amharic, are about openness, spirituality and progress - about everything that can arise when different cultures meet and inspire each other. There are melancholy and thoughtful moments in this music, but also a great zest for life and spiritual wisdom. Music that touches you immediately and is also danceable!
