Volver a la Luz – Diana Gameros’ Album Release

Composer/Singer-songwriter Diana Gameros invites audiences to a special evening celebrating the release of Volver a la Luz (Return to the Light). Two years in the making and made possible through the support of the prestigious Gerbode Grant and Women’s Audio Mission, this album reflects on themes of loss, longing, and collective hardship, while also illuminating the paths of hope, love, joy, and renewal.

On stage, Diana will perform on voice and guitar, joined by an extraordinary ensemble of new and longtime collaborators:

• Patrick Wolff (clarinet)
• Thomas Edler (bass)
• Aaron Kierbel (drums, percussion)
• Camellia Boutross (trumpet, electric oud)
• Sophie Powers (trombone)
• Magik*Magik String Quartet
• Members of Inspector Gadje Balkan Brass ensemble
• Choir of local community members

“Diana Gameros has the rare quality as a vocalist of bringing forth a sound which we hear but cannot express. Like Lila Downs, Lhasa, Mercedes Sosa, she digs deep." — Joanna Manqueros, KPFA
