Susana Baca’s newest collection of music (and her first in 4 years) Travesias, chronicles the songstress’ exploration of oral traditions from Africa, Haiti, France, Ireland, and Italy in addition to her native Peru. Working with Susana for the third time, producer Craig Street helmed Travesias, cultivating arrangements that have been pared downed to reveal the steadfast rhythm of Susanna’s longtime band members Juan Cotito Medrano, David Pinto and Sergio Valdeos. Gilberto Gil, Marc Ribot, Kevin Breit and the Tosca Strings are among the guests included on the album. Simple arrangements combined with Susana’s distinctive voice translate the essence of each song’s sentiment of love and struggle.
