Her brand new CD, ALMA MIA, just released, focuses on her interest in boleros . This multi-talented vocalist, the Queen of Bossa Nova from Rio, will express her versatility and deep sentimental heart at Birdland August 31 – September 4th, Produced by Pat Philips & Ettore Stratta.
"Leny Andrade is the Ella Fitzgerald of Brazil"…
…… Tony Bennett
"To describe Ms. Andrade as both the Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald of bossa nova only goes so far in evoking a performer whose voice seems to contain the body and soul of Brazil…like everything else she performs, it seems to well up from the center of the earth. " – Stephen Holden, The New York Times
" I can sing the sun, I can sing the sea, and the things of art and romance…without romance, there is nothing to do in this life". – Leny Andrade
Ms. Andrade will be joined by the very talented Klaus Mueller on Piano, Sergio Brandao on Bass and Helio Schiavo on Drums.
