2 Sole Gimenez is one of most appreciated and easily recognizable voices within the universe of Latin music, due to her great quality, her exciting warmth and her unique personality. During the last twenty five years she has kept evolving and maturing her artistic and musical dimensions. At the moment she is one of the most elegant, charismatic and versatile voices in the Spanish speaking world. Her singing style, her expressiveness, that go beyond simply singing, have always made her stand out both, during her phase as a vocalist and leader of a successful Spanish band, Presuntos Implicados, as well as in her phase as a solo artist since A great admirer of singers like Ella Fitzgerald, Ellis Regina or Omara Portuondo, whose voices are above any style in music, this Spaniard, born in Paris, is the heiress of their good doing and receives the baton from them to recreate, in her own style, a splendid repertoire with songs from the greatest artists from the Spanish speaking world, Portugal, and now France. Serrat, Jobim, Brassens, Manzanero, Paez, Moustaki sound again and this sound is different. Sole Gimenez has been developing a landscape of sound in her different records and in her concerts, with these warmth and sensual colours, intimate and explosive at the same time. Bolero, Swing and Bossa Nova, Danzon, Dixiland, Waltz, all these rhythms and styles make sense and gain a new life in her voice. Sole Gimenez s voice is full of hues and wisdom, impregnating light and inspiration. Collaborations that stand out: Joan Manuel Serrat, Herbie Hancock, Randy Crawfort, Paco de Lucía, Ana Belén, Milton Nascimento, Armando Manzanero, Chano Domínguez, Jorge Pardo, Jackes Morelembaum, Miguel Ríos, Toquinho, Antonio Serrano, Iván Melón Lewis, Javier Limón Currently, combines her career as a singer with her work as a teacher at Berklee College of Music of Valencia. More than 3,000,000 copies of records sold in her almost 30 years as a professional singer. More than 1000 concerts in 15 different countries, some memorable ones: Palau de la Música of Barcelona. San Sebastian Jazz Festival, San Javier Jazz International Festival Plaza de las Ventas, Madrid. Plaza de Toros, Valencia Auditorio Nacional de la Ciudad de México, Montreaux Festival, Ronnie Scott Club of London, Sidney Opera House Author of more than 100 songs, some of which have left a mark in different generations in the Spanish speaking world: Mi pequeño tesoro Cómo hemos cambiado Alma de Blues Llovió Cada historia En la oscuridad De sol a sol Tan sola Volver a encontrar la ilusión de vivir La mujer que mueve el mundo Femenino singular Un tren perdido Aquella tarde All these are some examples.
