Ona K - Studio Sessions

Singer, composer, and creator Ona K envelops you in a mist of beauty. Once you enter, you won’t want to escape. With the sensuality of her voice, the elegance of her compositions and arrangements, her powerful aesthetics, and the strong community of musicians she has created around her music, she moves the listener’s soul in a way that they will always remember. Her music pushes stylistic boundaries. It is born in the roots of descriptive cinematic music, connected to poetry (in English and Spanish), with a voice and arranges that navigate between r&b, and jazz, and a string quartet that is rooted in her to her classical origins. Born in Barcelona, having lived in Spain, India, United Kingdom, and Austria, Ona K describes herself as migrant bird. In her travels, she has performed to critical acclaim in venues and festivals across Europe and the United States, winning several national and international awards. She is in process of releasing a new full-length album, FULL NEW LUNA, coming soon. Track Listings: 1. Open Up - Music & lyrics by Ona K 2. Luna Llena, Luna Nueva - Music & lyrics by Ona K 3.
