Paloma is a unique young artist, Brazilian American who is not only a powerful performer that dominates the stage and electrifies her audience but is someone who is a most incredible songwriter.

Indeed, it’s a rarity that a young singer with a distinctive voice knows that her future will focus on pursuing a musical journey that defies expectations or categories. “I don’t want to be put in a box,” says the vibrant, rising-star Paloma Dineli Chesky, who resides in New York City. “I love pop music that is highly produced, but I’ve always loved jazz and the older artists who are timeless. I’m exploring at this point in my life, blending the two, trying to find a cohesive voice. This is who I am.”

On her new recording Memory (out June 19th via The Audiophile Society, Inc.), the New York-based polymath and her band reveal her jazz-inflective acoustic side with six personal originals and three covers that are meaningful to her, some of which independently appear on YouTube as pop-driven versions.

Memory marks the beginning of a long and winding crossover musical career for the hybrid vocalist/composer who possesses raw talent of power and emotional depth beyond her years.

1. Summertime
2. Green
3. Baby Face
4. Memory
5. Sober Now
6. Corcovado (Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars)
7. House of the Rising Sun
8. Diamond
9. When the Moon’s Away

This immaculately sculpted, musically expansive new recording opens on a seductive George Gershwin classic Summertime and then brings us the impassioned Green, a gentle soulful swing that drives her original Baby Face and the veritably hushed toned title track Memory.

On what is Paloma’s most mature crossover project to date, along next is the jaunty, feisty mid-tempo gem Sober Now which is itself backed seamlessly by the lushly sculpted, Portuguese sung Corcovado (Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars), a highly sumptuous rendition of the classic House of the Rising Sun, the set rounding out on the pulsing Diamond, coming to an all too soon close on her simply heavenly original When the Moon’s Away.
