RadioIndy is pleased to present Marco Ulloa with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Apuntale a la Verdad"

"Apuntale a la Verdad" is an excellent acoustic-driven release from singer/songwriter Marco Ulloa that features great Latin and world elements. Ulloa delivers with a clean, moving, and heartfelt vocal, primarily in the Spanish language. The arrangements on this album are also phenomenal, with great Latin-influenced acoustic work accompanied by world percussion, harmonica, and shakers to give the songs their full sound. The songs are sad and heartfelt, mostly about love but also about spirituality, as can be heard in "Jesus" and "Todo Por EL." The simple production of "Apuntale a la Verdad" effectively provides clean instruments and vocals while maintaining a great raw quality. "Tu y Tu Gracia" opens up the album with some fantastic acoustic work and heartfelt lyrics, and puts Ulloa's broad vocal range on display. "A Bit More" is the only English language track on the album that features more great acoustic work and the memorable chorus, "All I want is your soul, your love, your time, and a bit more." Overall, Marco Ulloa has put together an impressive album penetrable to both Spanish and non-Spanish speakers due his soothing and heartfelt vocals and well-crafted acoustic arrangements. Fans of Spanish language acoustic songs with world and Latin elements should definitely check this one out.
