Bio
Valentina grew up outside her native homeland, after the 1973 coup in Chile. She settled in Scotland on meeting guitarist David Russell at the Edinburgh Festival. Together they founded Voces del Sur. They made their debut at the legendary old Bongo Club in Edinburgh, where coincidentally, Valentina encountered Mr. McFall's Chamber, with whom she also began an ongoing and fruitful collaboration singing tango. (She will be recording her own tango songs with Mr McFall's Chamber in 2012.) Valentina writes and sings songs of exile, love and social change, inspired by tango and folk music traditions from Latin America. With her guitar and cuatro she creates a style that is very much her own, with a powerful stage presence and voice to match. David, a talented Scottish guitarist and sound engineer, adds his diverse musical background to Valentina's work and also takes a fundamental role in the group's artistic direction and song writing. Their presentations include performances on various BBC radio programmes, as well as many festivals and major venues throughout the UK. They have toured the UK and played in Mexico, Chile, Portugal, Greece. Valentina and David have recently finished recording their next album with Greek Producer Vangelis Fampas - soon to be released by Massive Productions, under the English title: "(Little Book) of Love and Exile" - "De amor y exilio". This recording involves the participation of some of Greece's most accomplished musicians and enjoys a lush production by composer and filmaker, Vangelis Fampas -
