Indira Valey
Indira Valey is an avant garde multi-instrumentalist and performance artist who channels powerful songs that reverberate with the voices of her ancestors and speak directly to modern audiences. Her ancient-sounding, resonant voice is a force of nature, and she utilizes looping technology, effects pedals, and a unique palette of instruments (flugelhorn, timpani, xylophone, kalimba, electric guitar, etc.) to create mesmerizing and memorable live performances that are ever-changing due to her spontaneous improvisational magic. Indira Valey’s debut album Recordar is rich with oceanic textures and shifting soundscapes that will lull you into a soothing trance from start to finish. In Spanish, recordar means “to remember,” and also “to pass through the heart.” This is an album about memory, and what it means to return to yourself through your heart.
