Colombian-based singer and songwriter Sol Okarina was born in Guayana, Venezuela, where the Orinoco and Caroni rivers converge - a spectacular setting that left an indelible mark on her music and lyrics. She also continues to play her childhood instrument, the Venezuelan cuatro, a diminutive member of the guitar family.
Sol Okarina blends those deep-rooted elements into her engaging modern mix of indie rock, cumbia, Caribbean and South American sounds and African-influenced champeta on her impressive debut album Sumergible - and with her band live in WFMU's Studio B this week.
Video of some of the song and chat's from tonight's session can be seen here:

This is great stuff. Really fun. It would be wonderful to see live somewhere. Somewhere warm and tropical, ideally! Sounds like you were enjoying yourself as well. | |
