Lucia Newell has sung internationally in night clubs and in concert from Rio de Janeiro and Mexico City to L.A. and her home base in Minneapolis/ St. Paul, MN. She can be heard singing background vocals on recordings with Paula Abdul, Ben Sidran, Patti Austin, as well as on several national TV and radio jingles. She also teaches, is known for her ability to sing in a wide range of styles and especially for her command of the Portuguese language. "These Brazilian-oriented tunes are courageously spare dialogues between Griffith's acoustic guitar and Newell's delicate, minor-key vocals. The slower the tempo, the more luminous the mood...Newell's forte is the appearance of fragility...Griffith's understatement makes for empathetic support." - (Britt Robson, Minneapolis Star Tribune) "Acoustic guitarist Griffith and singer Newell have put together a wonderfully surprising collection of love songs...that brings to mind steamy, moonlit tropical nights...But it is on their own songs that Griffith and Newell really shine... You do not listen to Enter You, Enter Love as much as you are seduced by it." - (Rob Voedisch, Sun Current) "Just like my mood, the phone lines light up every time I put Joan and Lucia on the air." - (Craig Eichhorn, Radio Producer and Host, KBEM-FM) Check out the artist's website: http://www.lucianewell.com Track List: 1.
