In the grand tradition of great
Brazilian woman singers, Monica
Freire, with her beautiful voice, her
contagious swing and her powerful
on-stage presence, is an artist in the
league of the greatest. She has
performed her own compositions
with great success from her native
Bahia to Europe, New York, Canada,
Mexico and Japan, where her album
was World Music best-seller in 1997.
Her soon to be released new CD
has been partly recorded in Bahia
with Caetano Veloso’s percussion
players and Gilberto Gil’s back-up
singers.
