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.“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.
