Tita Lima
Tita Lima: Brasileira, paulistana, singer, composer and producer, brings us her mixture of MPB (Brazilian Popular Music), Samba-Jazz, Bossa Nova, Hip-Hop and Dub. Born into a family of musicians, music came to Tita Lima naturally. She learned to play the piano with her grandmother and later the bass with her father, the bass player for the 70s rock band "Os Mutantes" and has paid her dues in Sao Paulo's musical scene playing bass, singing and sharing the stage with widely-recognized artists such as Bocato (Metalurgia, Elis Regina, Gal Costa, Maria Rita), Joao Donato, Luz de Caroline, Locosapiens, Luizao Tiu e Juneca, Nucleo and Dori Caymmi, among many others. She now joyously embarks on this, the journey of her first solo recording titled "11:11" (released in September, 2006), one in which she gathers a host of excellent musicians and producers from Brazil and the United States including Apollo 9 (ex-Planet Hemp, producer for Otto and Seu Jorge), Andre Caccia Bava, Kassin, JJ (Jorge Ben), Beto Cascales and Bryan Velasco among others. Tita's music has become a favorite among DJs in Brazil, the United States and Europe, including Rafael Moraes, Garth Trinidad and Gilles Peterson, who included the song "A Conta Do Samba" in his upcoming compilation "Brownswood Bubblers" on the Brownswood Recordings label.
