Pacifika - Asunción
More proof of the world music’s appeal can be found in Canada’s Pacifika, a trio featuring Peruvian-born singer Silvana Kane, formerly of West End Girls, guitarist Adam Popowitz, ex-Mollies Revenge, and bassist Toby Peter, who has worked with rapper k-os. Pacifika’s pop roots give the group a contemporary edge, whether it’s the hypnotic dancehall groove on “Me Caí” or the droning feedback on “Mas y Mas.” And despite the Spanish lyrics, Kane’s sensuous voice makes Pacifika every bit as accessible as Shakira.
