She can be found singing under these pseudonymns on albums such as Pacha Ibiza, FTV (FashionTV), Paris Dernier, Hotel Costes and Privé. She had just begun to flirt with the idea of singing to jazz when she was contacted and invited to join the production of the first volume of the series, Jazz and ´80s. No one imagined the success that the series would have almost over night. The producer of the series knew a good thing when he saw it and he quickly shared his enthusiasm in the project with Karen and made her and her voice an important part of each album.
Now that Karen had gotten her toes wet in the studio, her label decided it was time to dive in and they sent her and the rest of the Quartet on tour to Brazil in late 2009. The visit was a great success and Karen came into her own onstage, gaining confidence and ever tuning and refining her singing.
On the heels of the Brazilian adventure, the label again stepped in and told Karen it was time to focus on her own material.
To this effect they sent her to Los Angeles for a few months to work with and learn from some of the best songwriters in the business. It was there that she studied under the guidance of Pam Oland , a multiple Grammy nominated songwriter who has worked with stars like Whitney Houston, Earth, Wind and Fire and Aretha Franklin, to name a few. This period gave new direction to Karens own composing and songwriting and has helped her develop her signature sound while continuing to please fans with her characteristic lush vocals.
After her stint in LA, Karen began to dedicate herself exclusively to rehearsing both new and older material with the rest of the quartet and they have achieved a symbiosis that is a pleasure to watch. The Cooltrane Quartet with Karen in the lead is an act not to be missed, full of excellent jazz versions and brand new soloist material from a truly dynamic young artist.
Dindi
Karen Souza Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
with faraway clouds
just wandering by
Where do they go
oh I don't know don't know
Wind that speaks to the leaves
telling stories
that no one believes
belong to you
And to me
Oh Dindi
if I only had words
I would say all the beautiful things that
I see when you're with me
oh my Dindi
Oh Dindi
like a song of the wind in the trees
That's how my heart is singing Dindi
Happy Dindi
when you're with me
I love you more each day
yes I do yes I do
I'd let you go away
if you'll take me with you
Don't you know Dindi
I'd be running and searching for you
Like a river that can't find the sea
That would be me without you my Dindi
Don't you know Dindi
I'd be running and searching for you
Like a river that can't find the sea
That would be me without you my Dindi
That would be me without you oh my Dindi

Line by Line Meaning
Sky so vast is the sky
The sky is expansive and immense
with faraway clouds
Whose movement is unpredictable
just wandering by
Passing by without any particular destination
Where do they go
Their final destination is unknown
oh I don't know don't know
I'm uncertain and unaware
Wind that speaks to the leaves
The wind communicates with the foliage
telling stories
Recounting tales of past love
that no one believes
But the authenticity is doubted by others
Stories of love
Narratives of affection and passion
belong to you
These romantic stories are yours to keep
And to me
And to me as well
Oh Dindi
The beloved and cherished one
if I only had words
Words are insufficient to express the beauty of this love
I would say all the beautiful things that
I would describe everything enchanting
I see when you're with me
That I only witness when you are beside me
oh my Dindi
My love, my cherished one
like a song of the wind in the trees
A beautiful melody reminiscent of the wind among the trees
That's how my heart is singing Dindi
My heart is singing a melody of love for Dindi
Happy Dindi
Dindi brings happiness to my life
when you're with me
When you are by my side
I love you more each day
My love for you grows every day
yes I do yes I do
Unquestionably, yes
I'd let you go away
I would not hold you back
if you'll take me with you
But ask that you bring me with you
Don't you know Dindi
Do you not realize, my love, Dindi
I'd be running and searching for you
I would not rest until I found you
Like a river that can't find the sea
Like a river that seeks the sea
That would be me without you my Dindi
Without you, I am incomplete, Dindi
That would be me without you oh my Dindi
My love, without you, I am not whole

Si, es argentina. Hay poca información sobre ella. Tengo todos sus CDs, desde Jazz and 80's, que entre paréntesis escuché por primera vez en Baires. Maravillosa voz.
