Jorge creates a new sound with his cuatro and Jessica adds English lyrics and phrasing with jazz and soul influences. “As friends we had talked about how much we appreciate the music of maestro Juan Luis Guerra and the 440 group and we wanted to do something natural and simple. Working with Jorge has been a pleasure.” . Jessica chose the song “Si Tú Te Vas” as one of her favorites. The joy of creating music is evident in the expression of each of them in the video.
