Sabor was my first project of all original material, every word and melody. It is a Latin-flavoured collection with enough feeling that I hope will inspire people of all musical tastes. I chose to name this project Sabor because it means “flavour” or “tasty”. Although these songs don’t strictly qualify as Latin Jazz, I love the genre and I wanted to pay homage to this beautiful style of music. I hope Sabor makes you want to move, be inspired, and, most of all, feel the love of self-expression.
I'd like to dedicate this recording to the memory of Craig P.W.
