“Our roots are meant to tell us where we came from, if we know that, it is easier to figure out where we want to go. Without this knowledge we are lost”.
Sheila Patricia
In times where folktronica has reached a massive audience, Sheila Patricia must be pointed out as a pioneer of this genre. Her traditional singing proves the richness of the Galician sound which she mixes with various forms of electronic music, from sophisticated minimalist bases to ultra-modern polyrhythmic explosions of sound.
Sheila Patriciaˈs music is influenced for the innumerable trips throughout Latin America during her childhood which led to a heart full of melodies and rhythms from the most various origins. She developed a unique perspective that takes elements from fado, jazz or Argentine folk music. Hier project is a continuous investigation of the different languages of folk.
