Sophisticated, jazz-influenced bossa nova from the daughter of Brazilian singer Joyce. She’s got a warm, honey-smooth voice that is wonderful for this style of music. Joined by Celso Fonseca on guitar/vocals. It’s all really, really good.
*1. Sweet, relaxed bossa vocal duet w/guitar. Intoxicating.
2. Midtempo vocals backed by tight small jazz combo.
3. Bright, midtempo guitar and warm vocals.
*4. Slow vocal duet w/a quiet, late-night vibe.
5. Soft vocals and gentle guitar. Really pretty.
6. Electric guitar/bass provides soft bed for gentle, downtempo vox.
*7. Sweet cover of Edith Piaf classic. Slow, warm, playful. French.
*8. Midtempo duet w/a light touch. Swaying & so good.
9. A capella intro, slow strings. Sleepy, lazy, jazz.
10. Upbeat vox bounces against jazz combo.
*11. Nicely swaying bossa w/sexy vocals & tight arrangement.
*12. Sweet midtempo jazz w/a sophisticated groove.
13. Warm midtempo bossa w/soft vocals.
14. Electric guitar/vocal duet on a classic ballad. In English. Slow.
