With her latest solo project Loopholes, Andrea Motis, currently the exponent of the Spanish jazz scene, embarks on a search for a completely new, unconventional style with her formation and expanded concept with her own compositions and those of her comrade-in-arms Christoph Mallinger by borrowing from “electric jazz”, “funk” and “neo-soul”. Motis sings both soulfully and impulsively in Catalan, her mother tongue, as well as in Spanish, Portuguese, English and German, and comments on her vocal expression alternately – trained on both instruments – with trumpet or saxophone. Chet Baker and Dexter Gordon may have been the inspiration for this. As a young star, she recorded her first album with jazz standards at the tender age of 15 and later became the first Iberian artist ever to release on internationally renowned jazz labels. She has worked with Quincy Jones, Scott Hamilton, the classical cellist Yo-Yo Ma and the WDR Big Band, among others. We can look forward to Loopholes, which is scheduled for release in spring 2022.
