The Magic and Sultry voice of Irene Torres. Old Mill Inn.
Irene Torres looks very young, but has been singing in Toronto for a long time. I've seen her first time many years ago (2009-2010?); and I thought she was just a teenager then (with The Sugar Devils). At the Old Mill Inn, she selected a program of her own and in homage to her root, Peruvean music. She came to Toronto at age 6, but only lately started singing 'en Espanol'! There was a lot of excellent music to choose on this great evening (24 bands! fundraising for musician union), but her performance is magnetic and we stayed for most of her set- With Jeremy Ledbetter-piano, Eric St. Laurent-guitar, Dhany Mario - voice, percussions, Matias Recharte-guitar, percussions.

✿ "Madreselva" is a story of the immigrant experience and the journey to ‘home’ in a new land.

✿ " When I was a little kid and soon after I had just arrived to Toronto from Peru, I was walking down Brock St., and my nose caught the familiar scent of the beautiful Madreselva (Honeysuckle) blooms. I closed my eyes and it took me right back to my abuela and my neighbourhood in Lima. And I was home."

Irene Torres parece muy joven, pero lleva mucho tiempo cantando en Toronto. La vi por primera vez hace muchos años (¿2009-2010?); y entonces pensé que ella era solo una adolescente (con The Sugar Devils). En el Old Mill Inn seleccionó un programa propio y en homenaje a su raíz, la música peruana. Llegó a Toronto a los 6 años, ¡pero recién recientemente comenzó a cantar 'en español'! Hubo mucha música excelente para elegir en esta gran velada (¡24 bandas! Recaudación de fondos para el sindicato de músicos), pero su actuación es magnética y nos quedamos durante la mayor parte de su presentación: con Jeremy Ledbetter al piano, Eric St. Laurent a la guitarra, Dhany Mario - voz, percusiones, Matias Recharte-guitarra, percusiones.
