CUALQUIER DIA - KANY GARCIA
Singer-songwriter Kany Garcia’s confessional rock debut is a welcome major-label departure from Latin pop divadom. Her husky tone seems built for a sideways glance at breakups, sex, aging and human indifference, but it’s the uptempo tracks that really leave an impression. Garcia’s sudden bursts of anger are a dose of good sassy fun, especially on the country-tinged “Amigo en el Bano,” a darkly funny tune about a vibrator, and the brisk rocker “Mujer de Tacones,” in which she declares she’s “tired of looking at myself in the mirror … because in my early 20s, you’ve made me feel so wrinkled.” Garcia’s lyrics show moxie, and with a few more memorable arrangements to match, her incisive ballads could have even wider appeal.
