Ralf Dombrowski heard and saw Camila Meza in Munich (Sunday 8th Feb 2015)
There was very fine competition-concert today at the matinee of the BMW Welt Jazz Awards here in Munich. Camila Meza is a vocalist and guitarist from Chile, based in New York. She has very good chances indeed of becoming far more widely known. She presented a well-judged and confidently presented combination of Brazil, songwriting, mainstream modern jazz, and – not least – charm. Not at its heart essentially innovative, but definitely heart-warming, and she has a fabulous band: Shai Maestro, Linda Oh, Kendrick Scott … which is also the personnel on a new CD, just recorded and to be released later. Very classy…
