Eljuri Premiers Today “El Viento”

The First Single Of Her Upcoming New Album "La Lucha" To Be Released In October

Latin American melancholy is the center of this romantic bolero entitled “El Viento”, the first single that Eljuri released today from her upcoming album that will launch this October. With this first installment from the singer, composer and great guitarist who was born in Ecuador and based in New York since childhood, it is easy to refer back to great ballroom dancing and to the Caribbean sensuality.

Doing homage to traditional Latin rhythms and harmonics, the lead guitar used on the solo of this song is one of Eljuri’s own invention, an electric tres, custom built for her by her personal luthier.

In her third and new soloist album entitled “La Lucha”, Eljuri travels through musical landscapes with her songs and her guitar that ranges from rock and pop-punk to bolero, and through reggae and Afro-Caribbean rhythms, all presented with elegance and with an empowering female voice.

The single ‘El Viento’, produced by Cecilia Villar Eljuri is now available for download on iTunes, Amazon, Google Music; streaming on Spotify, iHeartRadio, eMusic and in main digital outlets. The video for this single will be released this coming Friday, August 19.
