Luisa Maita - Lero-Lero

Sultry, seductive and infused with that inimitable samba swing, the music of Lu�sa Maita embodies the modern spirit of Brazil. Inspired by the bustling urban life found in her native city of S�o Paulo, Lero-Lero has a contemporary vibe with influences from alternative pop and chilled out electronic music, but with an acoustic foundation deeply rooted in local samba, bossa nova and MPB. Fans of Bebel Gilberto, C�u and Seu Jorge will find much tolove in Lu�sa Maita�s tropical, forward-looking sound, and her sensual yet soulful voice begs comparisons with everyone from Billie Holiday and Sade to Feist, St. Vincent and CatPower. Hailing from a country overflowing with musical talent, Lu�sa Maita rises above the fray as one of the most promising young singers of her generation.Her first album as a solo artist, Lero-Lero, which was co-produced by Paulo Lepetit and Rodrigo Campos, offers songs that encourage her fellow Brazilians to recognize the beauty and deeper meaning of their lives. �Its inspiration comes from the urban life of S�o Paulo, its ghettos and its people,� notes Lu�sa, �The lyrics and the aura of the album focus on the peculiarities of Brazilian daily life, culture and human condition.�Tracks:Lero Lero / Alento / A� Vem Ele / Desencabulada / Fulaninha / Mire E Veja / Maria E Moleque / Anunciou / Um Vento Bom / Al�vio / Amor E Paz
