BOSTON, MA, August 09, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- On August 11, 2009 Mass Appeal Entertainment will release Suzanna Lubrano's Festa Mascarado (Masquerade Ball). Suzanna Lubrano is one of the most celebrated Cape Verdean female artists' and now she is taking it universal with her first cross-over album, Festa Mascarado. This is Suzanna's fifth album but, her first U.S. release and it comes as a double disc set featuring an alternate version of Saida that was only released overseas. Suzanna's strong melodic voice and empowering messages of love and hope have already made her a platinum and gold selling artist outside of the United States.
Festa Mascarado features many Zouk and R&B style tracks that we classically know from Suzanna. The first single, also titled Festa Mascarado, is inspired by Suzanna being intrigued by a man at a masquerade ball. Love, friendships, and relationships seem to represent the overall theme of the album. The alternate version of Saida contains tracks that range from Sexy Cape Verdean Zouk Love to more traditional Cape Verdean Batuku and delicate R&B ballads in English.
Most of the songs on Festa Mascarado were recorded at Blue Jay Recording Studio, Massachusetts, United States, a world class recording studio where artists like Aerosmith, Carly Simon, Boston, Alice Cooper, Roy Orbison, Billy Joel, and more recently, has welcomed names like Rihanna, Nicole Scherzinger (Pussycat Dolls), Pink, and Lauryn Hill. Some of the other songs were recorded in Studio Latitude, Paris; Rocktown Studio, Rotterdam, Netherlands; Studio Relief, Switzerland; Northbank Studio, Rotterdam, Netherlands; Sound Vision Studio Arnhem, Netherlands.
Festa Mascarado and Saida contain collaborations with a wide range of composers, musicians, and rappers from around the world. In a sense, Festa Mascarado has become an unusual album. It's a mainstream pop album on which Zouk, R&B and more traditional Cape Verdean music styles flow into each other. Suzanna is responsible for most vocal melodies and lyrics of the Cape Verdean tracks. For a few tracks, she has written all music, vocal melodies and lyrics.
