2007.05.17. BEBEL GILBERTO w/ Federico Aubele @ The Mod Club
| quote: |
With the release of her debut album, Tanto Tempo in 2000 and a remix volume issued a year later, Bebel Gilberto introduced the world to an important new voice. Previously the singer had appeared alongside some of the most respected artists of our time, including Caetano Veloso and David Byrne, and cutting edge experimental artists like Dee Lite’s Towa Tei and Thievery Corporation. In the wake of the success of Tanto Tempo, Gilberto, the daughter of João Gilberto and Miúcha, had a cultural phenomenon on her hands. Mindful of tradition, Bebel nevertheless has her eye fixed squarely on the horizon.
On Bebel Gilberto, recorded by producer Marius de Vries (Madonna, Björk, Annie Lennox), Gilberto reveals herself as an artist with a sound and voice all her own. Thus, the title: “I decided to call the album Bebel Gilberto because I think it’s important to make a statement with my name,” Gilberto says. A truly international affair, Bebel Gilberto was recorded in New York, London, (with an entire string section!) Salvador (Bahia) and Rio de Janeiro. Yet it all reads as a whole — a portrait of an artist continuing to grow and find her way, with
confidence and curiosity.
