"At first, its almost as if they were playing it safe for this debut CD. Then you’re in over you head with its depth."
It’s been quite awhile since Brazil has poised a musical “supergroup.” We can think back to the 70’s with Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Maria Bethania and Gal Costa, or perhaps Milton Nascimento’s ‘Clube da Esquinha’ projects or even more recently from the Brazilian Jazz wor ...

It’s a 30-minute walk to Ipanema from the Copacabana strip; head a few blocks in from the beach to Avenida Nossa Senhora de Copacabana (you can’t miss it) then turn left towards Arpoador. Right on Francisco Otaviano, then a short walk past Parque Garota de Ipanema to Avenida Vieira Souto, Ipanema’s beachside boulevard. You’ll pass the longtime former home of Rio’s legendary Jazzmania on the second floor of the chic an ...

Ivan Lins turns a musical 72 today and recently was impressed with a tattoo done by a millennial fan from Sao Paulo, who chose the lyrics form one his most famous song to adorn her arm.
Bruna Jardim showed off her new ink on Instagram last week, and Ivan shared it with this message: "People, look how cool this tattoo with a verse of ‘Vieste’ made by Bruna Jardim." That makes me happy, the meaning of the songs embracing people's lives… it’s the first time I&rsqu ...
