Album Notes & Community Reviews

His first solo album, produced by Ivan Duran, backs Aurelio with Belizean and Honduran studio musicians improvising around Garifuna percussion, saxophone and electric and bass guitars. The program joins Paul Nabor's 'Naguya Nei' to his own 'Africa', sung across Spanish and Garifuna, and Afropop Worldwide named him its Newcomer of the Year.
