series Presents....

Daniela Soledade and Nate Najar
Streaming LIVE from The Palladium

link will still be active for 48 hours following the show.

Downbeat Magazine calls Brazilian vocalist Daniela Soledade, “master of classic samba and bossa nova.” Singing in both English and Portuguese, Soledade and her band share some classic samba, bossa nova, samba jazz and American standards, including tunes by Antonio Carlos Jobim and Ary Barroso, Michael Franks and Los Hermanos. The band features longtime musical director Nate Najar on acoustic guitar, multi-instrumentalist (keyboard, harmonica and percussion) Patrick Bettison, Joe Porter on bass, Jean Bolduc on drums and Alvon Griffin on percussion, with very special guest, cellist Yves Dharamraj.


My new single "Você" is a beautiful Bossa Nova song (written by 
Roberto Menescal and Ronaldo Bôscoli, produced by Nate Najar) 
that I sing in both English and Portuguese, and it will be released 
on all streaming platforms.

This is not only my very first release in 2021, but also my VERY 
FIRST MUSIC VIDEO MADE IN BRAZIL!!! In this video, you will 
see images of the city where I was born and raised, the city that has 
given me this music that I love so much and love to spread around 
the world!!

Presented by GLOBAL ARTS PROJECT, Karina Iglesias was chosen to be one out of an eight-person choir/ensemble hired by the Miami Dolphins (Dolphins Voices) through Emilio Estefan to sing the anthem at all home games. In 2011, Karina sang a duet with Sony Latin Recording Artist, Franco de Vita and was featured in his live DVD album, Primera Fila, which won 2 Latin Grammy Awards.

She has also performed with Wyclef Jean, has also been featured on Univision’s Mira Quien Baila, and has shared the stage with Latin artists like Beatriz Luengo, Alejandra Guzmán and Gilberto Santa Rosa to name a few. In 2013, Karina was selected to be a top contestant on NBC’s #1 TV Show “The Voice”. Her epic performance of “It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World” turned into a YouTube sensation overnight and every judge has glowing comments after her performances.

Through the span of his career, Grammy winning singer/songwriter Robbie Elias has been conquering the Latin world: writing songs, touring & singing backgrounds for international acts like Daddy Yankee, Marc Anthony, Ricky Martin, Alejandro Sanz, Don Omar & Chayanne; But don’t be fooled by his Latin roots… his soulful blend of pop, rock and R&B crosses all musical boundaries! Recently, Elias has been working with the music departments on such shows as Telemundo’s La Voz Kids and Univision’s Mira Quien Baila. In 2013, Elias won a Latin Grammy for his participation on the Alejandro Sanz’s album “La Musica No Se Toca”.
