In 2009, the Cuban American jazz singer, Venissa Santi beguiled critics and fans with her magnificent debut record, Bienvenida (Sunnyside Records). The collection of songs was so well-formed and mature was that it has been likened to a musical miracle rather than a “first album.” This amazing chanteuse has now finished what is to become a stunning new record Big Stuff: Afro Cuban Holiday (working title).
