LOS ANGELES - s4story -- Boleros de Noche is celebrating ten years of preserving Latin America's most passionate and poetic musical genre in the U.S. The series has spent the last 10 years organizing high-quality cultural events that unite an intergenerational audience to enjoy live bolero music.

To celebrate, Boleros de Noche presents Latin GRAMMY-winning Puerto Rican star iLe who will perform songs off her new album Como Las Canto Yo. The album is a covers project dedicated to iLe's favorite boleros co-produced by the artist with Ismael Cancel.

"I dreamed about recording this album since I was about 13," iLe says from San Juan. "I've always loved boleros, especially when I was a teen. At home, we listened to a lot of salsa and rock, but my father introduced me to songs about unrequited love that resonated with the drama of my adolescence. I loved the passion of boleros – I enjoyed singing them, expressing the feelings, and trying to understand them."

Far from predictable, her readings of these treasured standards offer subtle variations while approaching the melodies with reverence and grace. If anything, Como Las Canto Yo reveals iLe's profound understanding of the bolero mystique. An elegant session marked by pristine sonics and the maker's voice – a wondrous instrument, gorgeous and unpredictable.
