Our Artists
Sufiano
The very first artist in our catalogue is the the Danish-Portuguise musician and songwriter Sufiano, who released his debut album, Urban Morphology, in late March 2007.
Blending his Latin, American and African influences, Sufiano has created a musical journey that takes us through the cosmopolitan urban centre of the 21st century, yet never leaves the roots of classical latin jazz.
We at Villa Luisa Records are very exited to have entered a production deal with Sufiano, and we look forward to a long and rewarding cooperation.
