Buttafly Vazquez

Buttafly Vazquez

Demo

(Unreleased)

The music of sultry goddess Buttafly Vazquez is smooth neo-soul. Her unvarnished, intoxicating voice exudes sexuality without ever going for the crotch. Hers is a slow seduction in the style of Ann Peebles and Roberta Flack that uses each moan, inflection and bellow as an embrace. On the Latin-tinged Teddy Pendergrass workout “Red Dress” she works the organic rhythms to milk every ounce of emotion from her vocals. It’s that casual warmth that infuses the funky put down “Mind Controller” and the party’s-over groove of “Blue” with human resonance. The band gives Vazquez the perfect hip-hop, rock-inspired soul backing for people who missed Donna Summer, Candy Staton and Betty Wright the first time around. In a world enamored with Amy Winehouse and Joss Stone, Buttafly Vazquez deserves her shot in front of the masses. See her before she becomes the next big thing. Vazquez performs Wednesday at Emilio’s (1847 W. Broad St.).
