Ana Patan

Wallach by birth, European by choice and a citizen of the world by unavoidable casualty, Ana Patan brings a melting-pot type of music luggage, congenial and familiar, still difficult to place. The German of Romanian descends, based in Sweden, grew up in a nest of Romantic influence, with a rich folkloric expression of its own, in the Slavic region at the crossroads of Western Europe and the Orient.
Ana's sultry voice, guitar playing abilities and her impacting genuineness come out as extrovert music, rich in contrasts: organic and intellectual, funny and critical, energetic and laid-back, a multi-facetted hymn to everyday life, a mirror held to individual and humanity with all faults and splendour.

Ana Patan's album "Spice, Gold and Tales Untold" has been recorded on 2 inch tape, with only minimal compression/EQ and no computerised timing, the result being a soothing, natural and dynamic piece of work of unrestricted and skilled artistic interaction, that took almost seven years to produce.
