It is beyond belief how this album has been conceived and nurtured. All the songs have powerful stories that called for melodies and so much happened in divine synchronicity that I remain awestruck and humbled as the singer/lyricist/performer and composer. Sometimes I make a joke: I have carried an extra 25 pounds these last 7 years because I am carrying the whole orchestra within, the melodies that ache to be released, the sessions in Berlin, Rome, Bucharest and the last ones in a wonderful school north of Rome by the seaside. Over 80 of the finest artists, as this album is a decade in the making. And it has been a long gestation period. Many moons have passed and finally, we have given birth to this majestic album.
The album is now available on
Apple Music
Spotify
Amazon Music (.com)
Amazon Music (.de)
Deezer
Moon in Capricorn will also be available on digital platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Music, Pandora, and 150+ more.
The final song of the album, Message of Hope, is the song that called me to reach out to Fabrizio Pigliucci. I was surfing the web and heard the melody. I stopped surfing. I was enraptured. I asked him to send me music for The Essence Radio Show that I was producing and that featured 90 minutes of the finest artists around and he sent me a simple demo of a song that let me take flight. I felt like I had found a diamond in the middle of the marketplace. I was drawn to Fab’s amazing melodies and spirit. Little did I know that by trusting in my inner voice and guides - that first meeting in Rome would lead to him arranging and orchestrating my next album.
Free from labels and the constraints of boxes - this album is truly a celebration of acts of kindness, acts of courage and a belief in true artistry from all sides... again... I simply am the vessel and walk in deep gratitude to all the people that have supported me on the journey. Love, Kara
