Rita Payés Roma (born 1999)[1] is a Spanish jazz and bossa nova trombonist, singer and songwriter.[2]

Early life

[edit]

Payés was born in Vilassar de Mar to a musical family. Her mother, Elisabeth Roma, is a classical guitarist, and her father and brother are trumpeters.[3] She graduated in jazz trombone at the Escola Superior de Música de Catalunya.[4]

Career

[edit]

At the age of thirteen Payés joined the Sant Andreu Jazz Band, directed by Joan Chamorro where she began singing alongside Andrea Motis, Magalí Datzira, Alba Armengou and Eva Fernandez.[5] At fifteen, she released her first album.[6]

In September 2017, Payés, joined by the Motis Chamorro Quintet, played at the 17th Tanjazz festival in Tangier, Morocco.[7][8]

In 2019, Payés released Imagina, in collaboration with her mother.[5] The two went on tour to promote the album in Europe.[9][10] In alliance with Italian pianist Massimo Faraò [de], Payés in 2019 recorded two albums in New York: My Ideal starring Scott Hamilton, and In New York.[11][12]

On 16 April 2021, Payés released her album Como la piel in another cooperation with her mother, Roma, her partner, Pol Batlle, and with her brothers Eudald and Pere.[13] The album made NPR Music's best Latin album in 2021.[14] The track Nunca vas a comprender, an original composition, was an NPR Music's staff pick who described her voice as "angelic".[15] Two months later, she was given the 2021 Alícia prize for emerging talent, awarded by the Acadèmia Catalana de la Música.[16]

In June 2021, Payes and Roma presented their repertoire at JazzBaltica in Timmendorfer Strand, Germany, in a concert which impressed critic Angela Ballhorn through their simple and touching play.[17] During that summer, they also had a concert at the "INNtöne Jazzfestival" in the Innviertel, Austria, which was later aired by the Austrian radio station Ö1.[18]

In July 2022, Payés and her band played at Jazzclub Trier. The newspaper Volksfreund, titling "Heartache can be so fine", called her voice "phantastic", between ingratiation, aggression and infinite sadness.[19] In August, Payés met WDR Big Band for two concerts titled The Spanish Trombone in Cologne.[20][21] At ColorsxStudios in Berlin, Germany, Payés and Batlle recorded their new single "Vida" within the scope of A Colors Show.[22] In November, 2022, Payés performed with her group in Studio Foce, Lugano, Switzerland,[23] and had a concert at the 22nd festival Rigas Ritmi in Riga, Latvia,[24] before which they played at the concert hall Ancienne Belgique in Brussels, Belgium. In his concert report, Didier Deroissart described their repertoire as a mix of jazz, bossa nova and lounge music with some Americana.[25]

At the 36th Goya Awards ceremony in Valencia 2022, Payés performed Te venero with C. Tangana in a live TV broadcast by Radiotelevisión Española. About her performance Madrid's El Independiente wrote that her deep voice outshone "the famous presence of C. Tangana".[6][26] Her third studio album, De camino al camino, was released worldwide on 12 July 2024.[27]

Personal life

[edit]

In December 2021, Payés announced that she had given birth to a girl.[28] Her husband and frequent collaborator is Spanish musician, Pol Batlle, with whom she shares two daughters. Their second child, another girl, was born in May 2024.[29] She lives in Northern Spain, outside of Barcelona.[30]
