Daily Dose Of Jazz…
Terri England was born on October 24, 1956 in South Texas, England into a family of musicians, artists, and entrepreneurs. At six years of age she took an interest in playing guitar that would never wane, while also receiving extensive classical training on piano and cello. During formal education her immersion in both art and music proved to be valuable experiences strongly influencing her later development as an independent artist.
Her orchestral activities would teach her to create dynamic, musical arrangements that take the listener on a stimulating sonic journey. Her debut album, Tone Of The Tropics, is a mix of high energy tunes and melodies backed by samba, bossa nova and batucada rhythms from Brazil and booty-shakin’ Latin beats. Using a Brazilian guitar fingerstyle technique, England conveys a refreshing economy of expression that allows her music to breathe while flowing above rich harmonies and tight, syncopated rhythms.
Recording and mixing in her own studio, Terri blends bass, drums and percussion, as well as unexpected tempo changes on a few tunes. She releases her recordings through her publishing company, Inglaterra Música.
Guitarist, composer and arranger Terri England continues to produce original music by combining cool Brazilian and Latin rhythms, jazz highlights and classical orchestral arrangements.
