EVINHA Vinilo y CD

Review: On Cartao Postal, Evinha offers a deep, evocative collection of tracks that manage to both mesmerize and transport. The Sao Paulo-born singer weaves in elements of MPB, samba, and bossa nova with a natural ease, the rhythms flowing like a gentle tide. Her voice feels at home in every corner of the record, whether exploring soulful melodies or swaying in more jazzy moments. The understated orchestration brings warmth without overwhelming, keeping Evinha's storytelling centre stage. This is a release where every note feels purposeful, quietly drawing you into its layered beauty.

Review: Two outstanding Brazilian funk cuts straight out of 1971: "Esperar Pra Ver" is a laden with an immense orchestrated groove that's triggered by a lean, unforgettable bass guitar riff that matches Evinha's purring, slinky allure. "Que Bandeira" rolls with more of a poppy bossa flow with militant rim shots, swooning strings and a momentum that builds on every verse. Both tracks are taken from Cartao Postal, Evinha's third album that has been known to pass hands for as much as L500 in the past.
