Eleanor Dubinsky, Jasper Arts Center, 951 College Ave, Jasper, IN

One of NPR Alt.Latino’s four 2018 picks for New Spring Music, Eleanor Dubinsky is a “multilingual musician who can capture the emotions and soul of a community in a song.” (Felix Contreras). A vocalist, guitarist and cellist, Dubinsky writes and performs in English, Spanish, French and Portuguese. Her presentation of original songs alongside her band (drums, bass, guitar, keys, percussion/backing vocals) is an engaging blend of world-beats, jazz and pop music met with emotionally forthright songwriting. In the words of Tom Pryor (Songlines, Afropop) expect “a joyous, uplifting and deeply generous performance…music as medicine for your soul.”
