Artist Close-Up: Bebel Gilberto Gives Music For A Good Day In “Live At The Belly Up”

 

Bebel Gilberto has been making music for years, and is one of Brazil’s top artists. With a voice that flaps and flips notes like a butterfly’s wing. Gilberto’s new EP “Live At The Belly Up” is a record for those that wish to ride a darker wave with the light of a voice. The star offers new, delicate renditions of  Radiohead’s “Creep”and Brazilian classic like “Bananeira”, but with a soft twist. She manages to take the “in your face” energy of these tracks notch them down in volume and vivacity to give them serenity and quietness. Instead, she transforms them into enlivening lullabies that make you capture the beauty and even loneliness of their words more than ever such as in tracks, “Preciso Dizer Que Te Amo” and “Baby”. Babel’s voice feels as lovely as the picture of her above; draped in white fabric tussling over a Heavenly Beach. With just a few strings to back her, Live At The Belly Up proves that nobody can take away the power of a simple chord and lulling voice. Yes, such a combo may put kids to sleep, but it also puts adults to dream. Hence, for an album that is mature in wonder check out Bebel Gilberto’s Live At The Belly Up Click Here.
