Brazilian Star Bebel Gilberto to Perform at Lincoln Center’s American Songbook 2011

Bebel Gilberto will perform Thursday, February 3, 2011, at Lincoln Center’s Allen Room. As a member of bossa nova royalty – she is the daughter of João Gilberto and Mi?cha – Bebel Gilberto has taken classic Brazilian bossa nova rhythms and mixed in modern electronic pop to create a warm, sexy sound all her own.

Her latest release, All in One, mixes original songs with imaginative covers. The songs thump with irresistible beats or soothe with soft rhythms, and they all are about the wonders of love. It has been nominated for a 2010 Grammy for Best Contemporary World Music Album.

Tickets can be purchased online at Lincoln Center’s website www.AmericanSongbook.org, via CenterCharge at 212-721-6500, at the Alice Tully Hall, Avery Fisher Hall Box Office, or at the Frederick P. Rose Hall Box Office.
