Influenced by Brazilian pop and the music of her native Argentina, Gabriela Anders spent much time in America soaking up jazz and R&B sensibilities, all of which inform her singing. The daughter of a jazz saxophone player, Anders studied classical guitar while a child but moved to piano study at a Buenos Aires conservatory. She spent much time in New York as well, soaking up the music of tenor specialists <a href="spotify:artist:2hGh5VOeeqimQFxqXvfCUf">John Coltrane</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:0FMucZsEnCxs5pqBjHjIc8">Stan Getz</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:3NUsiT2JSyaWAnWaXxDzhQ">Dexter Gordon</a>. She also studied with <a href="spotify:artist:4yr0fHJhSr7ZWlsoZIbg44">Don Sebesky</a> and began singing with <a href="spotify:artist:05YVYeV4HxYp5rrWalvuE1">Grover Washington, Jr</a>. and <a href="spotify:artist:6SPpCqM8gOzrtICAxN5NuX">Tito Puente</a> while going to college. A brief time in Japan resulted in her first album, 1996's Fantasia (recorded as Beleza), though she had returned to New York by 1997. After sending a demo tape into Warner Jazz, Anders signed a contract and released Wanting in August 1998. ~ John Bush, Rovi
