Dida sings and plays with equal skill, and her unique sound marks her as an artist who deserves attention.

The genesis for this project is connected to an encounter she had with Fabio Morgera. While helping Pelled with her artist visa, Morgera pitched her on the idea of an organ trio album. She eagerly accepted the offer, as it provided an opportunity to move in a different direction after having worked extensively on the vocal-centric Modern Love Songs (Self Produced, 2015), and the planning instantly started to take shape. The music had yet to be made, but the seeds for the project were sown right then and there.Fast-forward to today, and we have the fantastic finished product in our hands. On A Missing Shade Of Blue, Pelled teams up with organist Luke Carlos ‘Reilly and drummer Rodney Green, two players that fit the project perfectly, because, as she notes, “they come from a jazz background but they’re deeply rooted in the blues.” Together they take a meaningful journey through thirteen songs - many old, some new, most borrowed, all blue - and provide a greater depth of understand-ing about the many hues of the titular color.
