B I O G R A P H Y.. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| .... Discovered while singing in the New York City subway by Producer Jamie Propp of As Is Entertainment, and recorded over three years with Adam Chalk, Propp recalls the first time he heard Manze singing. “Within one song she transported me through the entire range of emotions. I will never forget that song.” That song was Dayila’s original “Solé,” now the a cappella title track of her debut CD. .... Manze performs with her band the Nago Nation, including guitarist Alexis Monvelyno (RAM), percussion/vocalist Evens “Zilibo” Seney & Jakobo, rapper Bennchoumy Elian, bassist Andy Galore and drummer Peter Barr. Her debut CD “Solé” features her beautifully crafted pop songs in english (“That Feeling” & “ I Want To Be Free”), arrangements of the Vodou (‘racine’) songs, sung in Kreyol, which she learned from her ancestors, and electronic remixes of roots music that clearly establish Manze Dayila as the “Empress of Vodou Music.” ....
