Joan Soriano's Bio:
Joan Soriano’s bachata is packed with feeling: sweet lines with ragged edges, catchy melodies over tight guitar-shapes, and a bright raspy voice that finds the joy inside bittersweet. This is truth-music, well-crafted and well-produced. It entrances dancers. And taking us deeper into Joan’s story and Dominican culture, El Duque de la Bachata is a sharp and moving documentary by filmmaker Adam Taub. Adam earned the trust of Joan and his family and it shows. The film traces the topography of Joan’s life in music, guided by Adam’s keen eye for moments that open up and express life: tender, exuberant, sad, heartfelt, ordinary. One treat is Joan’s father dancing - never doubt that old guys can move. Joan’s music resonates in a deeper place after seeing the film. In an era loaded with low-nutrient entertainment, this is soul food for the long haul.
Soriano is the seventh of 15 kids. He abandoned school and the farming life his father envisioned for him to make his way as a musician. The Duke of Bachata is getting his shot at last, but he still lives in a house with no running water, and he struggles to support his wife and son.
The CD, El Duque de la Bachata, is full of playful cautionary tales that urge listeners to live wise, virtuous lives despite their circumstances. Among the bachatas and merengues here is one song that draws from old African religion. "Aye Belie" praises Belie Belcan, who corresponds to the Catholic St. Michael, and also the Voodoo deity Ogun. It's a nod to the deep history and cultural continuity that flow through this giddy, sorrowful, New World music.
