Last night I finally checked out “The Skin I Live In” and was completely taken by the musical feature Pedro Almodóvar decided on for the film, Concha Buika, a Spanish singer who fuses flamenco and coplas with soul and jazz. Her performance in the film left me mesmerized with her sound and curious to hear more. I tried to find words to describe her voice but Almodóvar defines it best saying “Buika belongs to a lineage of artists that is found very rarely. Her voice has an unusual color and a very wide tessitura, gifted for the most intimate caress and for the deafening shriek. Buika only knows how to sing ‘with her heart ripped apart.’ So young, she makes me tremble because she gives the impression that each performance is the definitive one, the last one.” Listen + Download HERE.
