Gigi - Gigi
Review by Andy Shackcloth
Gigi's self-titled album is a mesmerizing journey through the sounds and rhythms of Ethiopia. This album is a perfect blend of traditional Ethiopian music and modern jazz, creating a unique and captivating listening experience.
The vocals on this album are simply stunning. Gigi's voice is both powerful and soothing, effortlessly carrying the listener through each track. The instrumentation is equally impressive, with an array of traditional Ethiopian instruments, such as the krar and the washint, perfectly complementing the jazz-inspired arrangements.
Standout tracks on the album include "Gud Fella", a lively and upbeat number that showcases Gigi's vocal range, and "Abet Wubet", a hauntingly beautiful track with a mesmerizing melody.
