“[Jahzel] Dotel is a local natural talent, self-taught in both her vocal experience and musical tastes; dipping her toes deeply into Jazz at an early age. With a well-chiseled soprano as her sharpest tool, she blends the sounds from an eclectic collection of inspirations like Ella Fitzgerald, Sade, and Norah Jones with the modern productions in her original music. Most of the music she creates is expanded from her Spanish poetry, drawing out the most profound phrases and developing lyrics as she goes along.

Jahzel is also a regular at hotspots like El Tucan and Tamarina, where she seduced the audiences’ attention with her tangible intensity and enigmatic stage presence. She attacks music the way she approaches her yoga practice, with balance and a collected inner strength that inspires all who witness it.”
