Federico Aubele

Federico is heading out for a select few festival dates this summer and then is heading out on an extensive fall tour with support by labelmate Natalia Clavier who will lend her voice to his sets and will also sing solo as an opener. Check out the dates on our tour page.

Hot on the heels of being nominated in the New York Post's annual "Best Of" round-up, the LA Times selected Panamericana as one of the top 5 albums of the year in addition to KCRW's Nic Harcourt (Morning Becomes Eclectic) including the release in his 2007 "Top Albums" list. Last fall, Federico was Nic's guest and performed live in his studio. Panamericana was also included in the iTunes Latino "Best of 2007" end of year list, with Federico being invited to create a celebrity iTunes playlist following soon after.

Single 'La Esquina' is available now on 12" Vinyl with remixes from Nickodemus and Ursula 1000. Another vinyl release 'Maria Jose' is coming soon featuring remixes from Toy Hernandez (Sonidero Nacional) and Subliminal Kid, DJ Spooky.

"When it comes to soothing Latin vibes with a thoroughly modern soul it doesn't get much better than ESL Music's, Argentina-born Federico Aubele, and that's exactly why we got him on the phone to talk about his music and life"

ALBUM DETAILS

The highly anticipated follow up to Federico Aubele's critically acclaimed debut, Gran Hotel Buenos Aires. Aubele delves deeper into rich latin sounds with virtuoso guitar playing, hypnotic rhythms, smoky dub atmospherics, and the sensual vocals of Amparanoia, newcomer Natalia Clavier, and a collaboration with Calexico.
