Behind the Scenes: A Glimpse into Our Filming Process

In addition to the official release, we wanted to share some exclusive behind-the-scenes pictures from the filming of Dos gardenias:

Special Thanks to Our Amazing Team

We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the incredible individuals who played a pivotal role in the production of this music video. A special shoutout goes to Francis Lawrence, for his exceptional choreography and expertise in tango. Crystal Serrano for her beautiful dancing, energy and flair. Meredith Mehegan for making sure every hair was in line and creating the visual aesthetic. We wouldn't have the look of CASP without Vick Krishna, whose expertise in cinematography ensured that each shot was not only visually stunning but also conveyed the emotional depth of the song and the Cuban Art Song Project. Last but not least, we would like to recognize Jon Price for his invaluable behind the scenes work, organizing, and keeping me sane.

Join Us on This Journey

As we anticipate the upcoming release of Se fue, we want to recognize and thank you. Your support means the world to us, and we are excited to share more behind-the-scenes content, insights, and updates in the coming weeks. Stay tuned for more, and thank you once again for your enthusiasm and love for our music!

Abrazos,

Isabella

Cuban Art Song Project's debut single, Habanera Tú goes international!

We are overwhelmed by the scope of listeners for our debut single. Thank you to everyone who has played, shared, and saved Habanera tú!

As of May 12th we have had 1,986 listeners and 2,501 streams of Habanera Tú on Spotify!!! I was hopeful that you all would enjoy Tú as much as I did, but you never truly know how your music will be received until it's released. One of the ways CASP has been able to view its listener reach is a service provided by Spotify called "Spotify for Artists". Spotify for Artists is a valuable tool that provides artists with detailed analytics on how their songs are performing on Spotify. It offers daily stream counts, allowing artists to track the popularity of their music over time. The platform also displays the number of unique streamers, giving insight into how many individual listeners are engaging with the songs. Additionally, it highlights the top playlists where the song has been featured, helping artists understand where their music is gaining traction. One of my favorite features breaks down geographic data by showing the countries where the song is being streamed, illustrating our international reach!

This data is only available to me but I thought you who read my newsletter would find it interesting. Keep in mind this data changes every day!

For the past two weeks Mexico and the US have been duking it out for top spot. While the US was leading for quite some time, last week Mexico really started ramping up and is currently in first place!

If you don't use Spotify as your primary listening platform, fret not! The Cuban Art Song Project's music can be found on all of your favorite listening platforms including Apple Music, Amazon Music, Tidal, Pandora, and Youtube music. Visit our home page and scroll to the footer to click on your listening platform of choice to stream Habanera tú now!

The Cuban Art Song Project's Second Single, Coming Friday May 30th!

Album Cover Reveal: Dos gardenias

Dos gardenias, a beloved Cuban bolero, has been reimagined by the Cuban Art Song Project as a tango. Sharp rhythms from the güiro and pizzicato bass contrast sultry vocals and lilting piano to evoke a steamy relationship on the rocks. Out Friday May 30th, available on all streaming platforms!

This performance takes place on Governors Island, a unique 172 acre car free island located just a few minutes from Manhattan and Brooklyn via ferry. Those who have RSVP'd have received an information packet, but I am also attaching it below.
