:: Bebel Gilberto - Bebel Gilberto

Bebel Gilberto

A lovely, silky singing style marks the charming album by Brazilian star Bebel Gilberto. Just what you need in a soft, laid-back environment is the easy melodies driven effortlessly by a capable vocalist. Bebel wrote or co-wrote most of these songs. She adds a little extra character into the sweet music just to bring more edge and she includes some delicious pop hooks to stray slightly from her bossa nova background. Check out the wonderful beats, acoustic guitar, and bass that add to the gorgeous soothing vocals. The subtlety and emotion demands listening. Try the beautiful “All Around”, a slow bossa nova performed with Japanese guitarist Masaharu Shimizu, and the sensual “Every Day You’ve Been Away”, especially written for Bebel. The global, far-reaching music makes Bebel a woman of the world.
