  • Lili Añel Climbs the Wall Between Blues and Jazz, Tragedy and Bliss
    Lili Añel climbs the wall between blues and jazz, tragedy and bliss Carol Banks Weber – Jazz Music Examiner Lili Añel "I Can See Bliss From Here" [September 17, 2013, Wall-I Records] Rating: December 16, 2013 “It can all be gone forever. The blink of an eye. Lose your job. Lose your car. Lose your house. Lose your mind. Lose your time. What’s left to help us? Heaven help us, please. –‘Climb The Wall’ by Lili Añel” It’s very rare when an artist can immediately convey who they are in the first few stanzas of a song they’ve written and performed—without cheap theatrics, emotional blackmail, or panhandling for sainthood. New York-born, Philly resident Lili Añel is such an artist. In the first single off her September 17, 2013, Wall-I Records release, “I Can See Bliss From Here,” Añel lays herself bare, laying it all out there. “Climb The Wall” tells her story of falling to the bottom and slowly telling herself she can get out, “It’s the prayer your hope gets through.” The recession hit her hard, too. As a musician and songwriter, she put her hits into lyrics and music: “It can all be gone forever/in the blink of an eye/lose your job/lose your car/lose your house/lose your mind.” “That’s pretty much how it happened for me,” she said. “I didn’t lose my mind, but I came close.” And that’s just in the first song! By the time she breezes through the second, the deceptively light, Bata style dance, “Something To Do,” she’s already laid out her soul in matter-of-fact, plain-spoken sound bytes.
