Luca Mundaca
Singer, songwriter, and guitarist Luca Mundaca is one of the great
Brazilian artists who have gained international acclaim. Luca is
from a small town just south of Sao Paolo. From her early teens
on, she has been fine tuning her musical gifts. Early on she
quickly mastered the stand-ard Bossa Nova repertoire and she became
adept at interpreting the work of the masters.
With the recent release of her debut CD "Day by Day" it is clear that
Luca Mundaca is a musical artist in her prime. A formidable
composer and arranger, the new CD features all original
compositions. Shortly after releasing the CD an unsolicited copy
was sent to Putumayo records in New York City. So impressed were
the Putumayo people they immediately added her to their brand new
"Brazilian Lounge" CD. She is featured alongside several major
Brazilian artists on that CD including Bebel Gilberto, Paula
Morlenbaum, and Marcos Valle. The Putumayo CD features her
original composition "Ha Dias".
Now splitting her time between Brazil and the US, Luca Mundaca is truly
a citizen of the world.
