La guatemalteca Gaby Moreno encarna como pocas artistas una idea global y panamericana de la música, que se alimenta de blues, jazz, soul o r’n’b, pero también de sonidos fronterizos, boleros, joropos, calypso, tropicalismo o canción de autor. Buena muestra de ello son el extraordinario ¡Spangled! Protected content , un disco en el que, manejándose con soltura en inglés, castellano y portugués, y con la compañía del mítico arreglista y compositor Van Dyke Parks o del no menos mítico Jackson Browne, levantaba todo un monumento a la riqueza musical latinoamericana. O el más reciente Alegoría Protected content , séptimo álbum de una carrera durante la que ha colaborado y girado con Tracy Chapman, Ani Difranco o Hugh Laurie, hermanando lo poético y lo popular.
