Nolita Golding has a new single & video with the amazing collaboration of Latin Grammy-nominated Tony Succar & LUKAS winner Alex Wilson
With her powerful, compelling voice, to kick off 2019 Nolita Golding launches her new single “There Must Be An Angel” This single release is a step-change up in her career, cementing her reputation as a world class vocalist who can seamlessly weave between Soul and Latin in both English and Spanish.
The 80’s hit “There Must Be An Angel” (penned by Annie Lennox & David A. Stewart) has been deliciously arranged by Alex Wilson into a Soulful Latin version full of Caribbean flavour and laced with Gospel. Driven by Nolita’s power vocals and personality, she sets the scene for a definite hit in 2019! Soulful Latin… the new wave to hit the dance floors!
At present there is a musical trend focussed on the wonderful cultural revolution of the 60s in New York, when Latin America’s sounds were fused with jazz, soul and rock. This gave birth to fresh new styles such as boogaloo, spearheaded by luminaries such as Pete Rodriguez, Ricardo Ray, Joe Bataan and Joe Cuba.

Nolita Golding carries the soul of those pioneers and her unmistakable style proves it. In her constant search for excellence, Nolita completed this new single at Wincraft Music Studios, owned by Steve Winwood. The production was masterminded by award-winning producer Alex Wilson and features special guest and Latin Grammy-nominated Tony Succar on timbales. In addition, Venezuelan percussion master Edwin Sanz and Cuban rock guitar powerhouse, Dany Labana, have added their magic … this band is simply smoking!
The creative process has been a unique and magical experience, resulting in a track fully loaded with rhythm, positive energy, Caribbean flavor and mucho sabor!
As ever, the impressive power of Nolita Golding’s voice combined with her bilingual skills has her in continuing high demand as the session vocalist who consistently delivers the goods!
We invite you to enjoy this new single, which comes out at the beginning of this month…
It was created just for you and we guaranteed you will fall in love with it!

Birdland announces the new Latin Live Jazz Shows this February
North America / USA / New York
The famous Latin Jazz’s Nightclub brings to their stage four renowned artists of the New York Jazz scene to present their biggest hits during this month
Birdland kicks off the New Latin Live Jazz Shows with Arturo O’Farrill, a modern composer and pianist. He combines European harmony and instruments with those from India, Africa, and the Caribbean to bring a never heard ensemble sound to bear.

“Resist” comprises a weaving together of different influences into a new fabric, partly rough-textured, but with an internal dialogue that honors of each musical idea. There is the combination of flute (Alejandro Aviles) and tuba (Earl McIntyre) – two ends of the tonal and pitch spectrum, in duet with one another plus trumpet (Adam O’Farrill).
Sometimes they play the same notes, only octaves apart, and sometimes in counterpoint with one another. Latin percussion (Carlos “Carly” Maldonado) combines with African drums (Neil Clarke) and drum set (Zack O’Farrill), held together by the bassist Bambam Rodriguez. Special guest slam poet Baba Israel is also featured.
