Anela is a confessed natural beauty junkie. She spent 20 years in the Hawaiian Islands, mostly on the garden island of Kaua'i. She has spent some time in Taos, New Mexico, and the beautiful music mecca of Lyons, Colorado was home until last year. While in Hawai'i, she developed her distinctive style - fluid and graceful improvisation with kaleidoscopic overtones. ![]()
Anela recently moved to Coos Bay, Oregon and has formed a jazz duo with Marco Buitron called Arago Strings. |
