City Gypsy
My name is Karen Dinardo. I am a singer/songwriter/recording engineer who writes in a variety of genres... I guess this is where the gypsy comes out in me! I was lucky enough to be mentored by world renowned producer/engineer Nick Blagona (Tea Party, Cat Stevens, Deep Purple, George Harrison, Tom Jones....), I was quick to pick up on exclusive tricks of the trade that might set me apart from other engineers. I have been very lucky to work with many fantastic musicians including singer/songwriter Dan Hill (who wrote songs for Celine Dion, Brittney Spears, 98 Degrees, Alan Jackson, etc.). I've had vocal training with Elaine Overholt who recently appeared on the Elen Degeneres show.
On this project I have colaborated with RICHARD FORTIN. While I write the lyrics, engineer/edit/Sample, Co-produce and sing, Richard, who is a hugely talented guitar player also is the composer/arranger/producer. A Juno/Gemini nominee, he is a recipient of 2 Gold albums from Sony and Universal as well as 4 awards from the U.S. for his music for films. He has worked with internationally acclaimed musicians such as Michael Kamen, David Gilmour of Pink Floyd, Chet Atkins, Zamfir, Ray Cooper (percussionist for Madonna) and Alex Lifeson (Rush). He also worked on the album Persona featuring Eric Clapton and Yo Yo Ma. Among others, he produced Liona Boyd (Camino Latino), Patricia OCallaghan and Elaine Overholt who was vocal coach for Richard Gere and Renee Zellweiger in Chicago. Liona Boyd has recorded some of his music on her albums: Persona, Encore, The Spanish Guitar, Dancing on the Edge and Camino Latino on which his music was performed by prestigious guitarists, Steve Morse of Deep Purple and the legendary Al DiMeola.
City Gypsy's songs are in the Latin/Pop/Dance genre. Amor de Invierno is a piece inspired by a well known anonymous traditional instrumental song. This vocal adaptation is totally original in its arrangement and lyrics and all the songs have an overall Santana dance feel.gataboricua's station
