The Ladybugs
The Ladybugs play a unique blend of genres they call “dreamy Latin cowgirl jazz” with a repertoire that reflects their home city: culturally diverse, fashionable, and welcoming to all people. They combine their reverence for the Great American Songbook with the music of their Cuban, Colombian, and Brazilian heritage to create a uniquely New York sound.
“In all of contemporary music, The Ladybugs are easily one of my favorite things. The emerging genre generally known as new hot jazz has no shortage of artists who are talented, imaginative, attractive, and ridiculously young. But even by that standard, The Ladybugs stand out as a vocal duo that is both charming and musically substantial in equal portions.”
“The Ladybugs’ refreshing sound and smart interpretations of early jazz tunes come as something of a revelation: light popular music from the early 1900s still has the power to enchant. The talent in this band is enormous and much fiercer than its name implies. With all due respect, no ladybug ever sounded this good.”
