Singing the songs bossa nova icon Elis Regina made famous during her brief life, Vancouver-based, Brazilian-Canadian singer Sofia Avelino drew a sizeable Brazilian crowd and sold-out her Granville Island show last year. Regina’s fiery personality may be legendary – her nickname was “Hurricane” – but her greatest qualities were her immense vocal power, technical precision, and emotional intensity. This is what inspires Avelino. With her ace band, including guitarist Vicente Regis, pianist Mauricio Zani, bassist Julia Farry, trumpeter Rory Hislop and drummer Jordy McIntosh, Avelino sings 1970s Brazilian classics in a style both sultry and powerful. Presented by North Shore Jazz and Vancouver International Jazz Festival.
