Myles Sanko,
caballero del soul británico, está de gira por España durante este mes de marzo
presentando su tercer álbum ‘Just Being Me' en el que habla con
elegancia de amor, esperanza y política.
Artistas polifacéticos de tan alto nivel (además de músico y
compositor, es cinematógrafo y diseñador) son una rareza hoy en día y este
álbum es el resultado de un trabajo muy honesto, hecho a mano, firmado por él
de principio a fin: compone y escribe las letras, los ritmos, las melodías; se
involucra en las fotos, diseña sus propias portadas y graba y edita los
videoclips.
El disco lo ha grabado con sus músicos de siempre repartidos
entre Cambridge y Londres. ‘’He apostado
por una producción clásica del jazz, manteniéndola soulful y seriamente groovy.
Quería captar mi travesía musical desde los inicios en el hip hop de mi
juventud pasando por mi descubrimiento e interpetación del soul y ahora el
jazz." explica Myles.
El 22 de marzo actúa en la sala El Sol
de Madrid, el 23 en Apolo (Barcelona), el 24 en Teatro Circo de Murcia y el 25
en Caja de Burgos (Burgos)
LA ENTREVISTA
Still we like more the sound
of Myles Sanko in this new album, "Just
Being Me". It sounds more mature, more immersive and evocative sound,
more elegant and precious... definitely a great leap of significant quality.
Why do you think that your music has evolved in these last years?
I think my music has evolved over the last few years due to
experience, touring, composing, getting to know myself more and what I truly
like. Being confident enough to really express what’s inside because all my
fans all over the world have reassured me that they love what I do. And
finally, I believe a true artist must evolve, let their art reflect the changes
in them and the world around.
Why do you have titled "Just
Being Me" this new album? Could you tell us any stories during the
recording?
I
wanted the title of this album to reflect how I was feeling, my current
thinking, the fact that I am finally happy to be me and to listen to my heart’s
desires.
What do you expect from "Just
Being Me"? Where do you will go with this album?
Like
your child you expect great things from them but just have to let them find
their own way with a little help. With this album all I really wanted is for
the industry to say Myles Sanko is a serious musician and we should give him a
chance.
Once again Myles Sanko touring in Spain. What are the differences
between Spanish fans and those of other countries?
The
Spanish fans know how to let go and have fun. That is the wonderful thing about
touring Spain. People are wary and very kind so we connect easier. I love
Spain!
What are the future plans of Myles Sanko for this 2017 and next
2108? We assume that touring around clubs and festivals, but something that you
can anticipate us?
I
have already started working on my next album so that is very exciting. I also
plan to release a mini 5 track EP with duets of myself singing with great
female vocals from the UK early next year. Other than that I will continue to
grow and share my music with the beautiful people.
How is a normal day in the life of Myles Sanko?
I
am self-managed and run my own record label so when I am not traveling the
world on tour being a superstar, I am behind my computer just like right now
writing an interview like this or responding to hundreds of emails.
Do you have some point of view of the current economic and social
situation in the world in general that you want to share with us?
We
can change this world from what we see today to a much better place if we truly
want it, as we have the power to do so and it is all in our minds, or
thinking. For example I am very
interested in Mr Jacque Fresco and his The Venus Project.
