Bebel Gilberto September 17, 2007

Bebel Gilberto, daughter of bossa nova legend Joao Gilberto, has been performing since childhood and has worked with such cutting-edge talents as Towa Tei (of Dee Lite fame), Smoke City, Amon Tobin and the Thievery Corporation. Her latest release is 'Momento.' Forro in the Dark brings an updated style of traditional Brazilian forro dance music to the hipsters and club-goers. Supplementing the traditional instrumentation of accordion, zabumba and metal triangle with electric guitars, an array of flutes, modern percussion and other contemporary instruments, Forro in the Dark captures the core of forro for modern audiences.
