I still feel proud about it.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What are you working on right now?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I\u2019m currently working on my next album, which will be released next year.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Are there any specific albums or artists that have had a big influence on your music career and style?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A big influence and musical love is Djavan (Brasil) who I\u2019ve been basically listening to my whole life. The same goes with Sade, I\u2019ve been listening to her since I was a child and I always loved her music; a specific album that has influenced my music is <em>Lovers Rock<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Dream collaboration and why?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Since I was little, my dream has been to be able to play with Djavan. He\u2019s an artist I really love and admire that has been present my whole life. He has inspired most of my songs and I\u2019ve been able to get better at guitar by learning his songs. I\u2019ve cried many times and I\u2019ve felt the happiest with his music. I just love him.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>If you could play a Sofar show anywhere in the world tomorrow, where would you want it to be?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Creo que ese lugar ser\u00eda Brooklyn. I think that place would be Brooklyn.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Who are three rising artists you\u2019re excited about right now?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A friend of mine from Chile called Rena Brunette, I love her music. I don\u2019t know if [this] fits with the concept but recently I\u2019ve been listening a lot to Snoh Alegra and I really like her music. And, I recently discovered Hope Tala\u2019s music, I loved it and felt completely identified with her.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sofarsounds.com\/\">Catch Glo Herrara and other artists at a Sofar near you!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Glo Herrera knows how to pull a listener in from all angles\u2013 weaving together bits of samba, bossa nova, and R&amp;B.
