Vancouver-based
pianist, composer and singer-songwriter Jordana Delgado defines herself
as a storyteller. Initially trained as a classical pianist Jordana
quickly deviated from that and explored other genres such as pop, jazz
and world music with special interest in a cappella traditional music.
The leitmotiv through this exploration was always the storytelling part
of the music. She always puts the story first and uses whatever musical
elements she needs to its service. That brought her to participate in
many theatrical shows early in her music career until she finally
co-founded her own theatre company (“Cantamons”) that brought their
musical children show around many schools and community centers in
Barcelona, her home-town.Composing
and arranging music have always been her passions. That led her to
start or participate in several other musical projects such as the a
cappella bands air sOul and Víove, and the indie-pop band Paper de
Plàstic. After
relocating to Vancouver, she decided to start her solo career to bring
to life many stories that she had created on the side over the years.
Her first album Rainy Times was released in November 2021 and with it
came The Rainy Times Story, a 9-episode short film that develops through
the tracks of the album and that can be watched on YouTube.In
2024 she will be releasing a new EP, the first glimpses of which will
be seen in October 2023 with the single “Autumn Leaves” and in November
2023 with the release of her first Christmas single ever: an emotional
rendition of John Williams’s “Somewhere in My Memory.”
