ABOUT ILAYA:
?.?ilaya is nothing like you heard before, from Filipino singing and lyrics to a range of Latin American influence are well reflected on the record. This could be a gem to treasure with very original singing, phrasing, or even arrangements?????? Wendy, Panartist (London)

??? I wanted to focus on being with my voice,? she says. ?I really had to meditate on what was comfortable and natural.? An interesting choice of adjectives, since ?comfortable? and ?natural? aptly describe ilaya?s vocal delivery on her self-produced debut CD. ?Who am I to possess/the rhythm of my breath?? she croons softly on the opening track; she?s not one to take credit for her gifts. ?I am not sure where it comes from,? she says, ?It?s just there, and I go with it?.? R.V. Schide, Northbay Bohemian

?.?She has recently charted top 20 at Panartist Independent Album Chart followed by Music industry insiders and 12 million world music lovers worldwide!!!?.USA Sounds
