Biography:

The Swish of brushes, the hint of a jazz guitar and an enchanting voice. Cecilia is the lead artist that sings in the album "Papillon",a refined soft latin/bossa record which highlights the artist's inner journey. In just 3 weeks time, her album “Papillon” charted in the US at the 26th spot in Jazz Weeks world music chart and charted in the 29th position in CMJ’s New world chart in just one weeks time.
“the mix on "Papillon" emphasizes the rich and deep vocals that Cecilia's range allow her to express her soul through. … after 3 or 4 more listens, it's clear that she knows how to draw your ears out & wrap them in her aura. Just imagine yourself in that Brazilian haven you've always wanted to visit, Cuba Libre firmly in hand & in the mood to find love... with the kind of magic Cecilia is capable of weaving, that romance will come your way before the evening's over.. I give this a HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, & an "EQ" rating of 4.40...” (Rotcod Zzaj-IMPROVIJAZZATION Nation)

“The show opened with a performance by Italian singer/dancer Cecilia Herrera Frioni wearing a tropical dress by Andres Aquino,”
USAFashionShows.com, CoutureFashionWeek.com, An Andres Aquino Production. - USAFashionShows.com

“In Italian, French, Portuguese -and one track in English, this offering from Italy’s Cecilia deserves a listen. Ms. Herrera’s voice, the languages and the latin rhythms combine for a great outing.”
Doug Boynton - Girlsingers

“Holy smoke, the theoretical love child of Jacques Breland Astrid Gilberto.The record starts out with a track that sounds like the make out record you want to have handy when the blindfolds and hand cuffs come out and the only reason to light candles is to have a ready source of hot wax.”
Chris Spector - Midwest Record

“Armoniosa ed elegante è la voce di Cecilia. Fruscio di spazzole, il pizzico di una chitarra jazz: così Cecilia propone il suo primo singolo “Non ridere di me”, tratto dal suo album "Papillon". Nuova promessa del jazz vocale Madein Italy,”
MAYA AMENDUNI - Agenzia Radicale

“Cecilia è tutt'altro che una farfalla. Quando una canzone è bella e ti entra dentro, lo fa con forza, con una violenza che spesso ti porta alle lacrime. La voce calda di Cecilia arriva sì dolcemente dentro le tue orecchie, ma poi ti si posa come un macigno sul cuore.”
