In the week where Jhelisa released her 11 minute Opus track, Oxygen, on Dorado Records we spoke to the composer, arranger, singer and traveller about how spaces and places and her travels across the USA, Brazil, South Africa and her time spent in London influenced her as an artist.

So extensive was our conversation that we decided that a two part interview was not only justified but absolutely necessary.
