An Evening with Bebel Gilberto

Hailing from a rich musical lineage, Bebel is the is the daughter of João Gilberto and singer Miúcha. She grew up surrounded by her extended musical family, including her uncle Chico Buarque and family friends like Milton Nascimento, Tom Jobim, Caetano Veloso, and João Donato.

Although she has been making music all her life, Bebel Gilberto had her first major breakthrough as a solo artist with her highly acclaimed release Tanto Tempo in 2000, introducing her now-trademark blend of electronic bossa nova and positioning her as one of the top-selling Brazilian artists in the U.S.

Four-time Grammy nominee will release her most heartfelt and personal album in August 2023, entitled João.

More than a tribute to her father, the unforgettable João Gilberto, the album is a visit to Bebel's most fundamental musical memories. The choice of songs includes unexpected choices, such as the "Waltz Bebel (Como São Lindos os Yogues)", one of the rare compositions written by Joao Gilberto that was created for his daughter, to classics such as "Ela é Carioca" and "Desafinado."

João is an essential album for admirers of one of the greatest musical dynasties in Brazilian music. The recordings are neither versions nor reinterpretations, but declarations of love made in Bebel's unmistakable style, a style that, according to The New York Times,  "exudes a self-possession, unaffected elegance and comfortable sensuality that is almost impossible to find among American pop stars of the same age."
