Leny Andrade Returns To Birdland With BOSSA, BOLEROS, AND JAZZ 8/31

Multi talented songstress Leny Andrade, will take you on a journey with her incredible sounds of Bossa Nova from her native Brazil to her love of Boleros (stemming from some years living in Mexico), all with a Jazz flavor.

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.
