When I was at my pilates class last week i discovered the sound of Bebel Gilberto. Daughter of the legendary João Gilberto (who wrote The Girl from Ipanema) and the singer Miucha she’s released four albums and has been performing in Rio since she was a young girl. If you want some bossa nova to get you in the mood for a Brazilian break then this is it 🙂 Bebel’s music is full of warmth and longing – a sexy soundtrack that’s perfect for lounging whilst dreaming of sunshine and crashing waves. Listen to her on Lastfm here.
