CAETANO VELOSO w/ MEU COCO
Bahian composer, singer, guitarist, writer, and political activist Caetano Veloso has been a guiding light in the world of Brazilian Popular Music (Música popular brasileira, or MPB) for decades. Since the 1960s, he has reshaped the musical landscape of Brazil through the ripples of his innovative and imaginative sound. In his newest album, Meu Coco, he breaks almost ten years of silence with his bright intensity and melodic prowess.
"One of the greatest songwriters of the [20th] century" - The New York Times
A Grammy-winner, Veloso is the founder of Brazil's genre-crossing Tropicália movement in the '60s.
~~~~~~~~
Brazil's reigning artistic genius, Caetano Veloso places global pop, jazz and folk styles into a prism and conjures music that is uniquely his own. With an international stature on par with John Lennon and Bob Dylan, his influence across musical genres and geographic borders has been vast.
