I really like it!!! And you have a really cool voice. =]

My favorite song on the Album! Your music is awesome! Thank you Monica and Chad for blessing us with your unique sound! Much love and God Bless!

NO offense and you do both well, but I absolutely love these gorgeous tunes as opposed to your electronic house/step/dub music. Yet, I also understand why you want to perform both, too.

Celebrating 50 years since the landmark recording of Stan Getz and Charlie Byrds "Jazz Samba", world-jazz band Veronneau follow up their highly acclaimed 2011 debut CD with the bossa nova inspired "Jazz Samba Project", winner of the Washington Area Music WAMMIE Award for Best Jazz Recording of the Year. 

Veronneau's first album "Joie de Vivre" took their brand of gypsy swing, bossa and jazz sung in 4 languages, around the world and into the charts. Reaching number 9 on Jazzweeks World Music chart, the band toured in the US, Canada and the UK, performing live on the BBC. 

"Jazz Samba Project" puts the fabulous vocals of Lynn Veronneau and the nylon string acoustic guitars of Ken Avis and David Rosenblatt to great use on the classic songs of bossa nova and their own bossa interpretations of contemporary songs such as Waiting in Vain.

An old track but wanted to share, recording a little low perhaps but ok :)

I tried 4 part harmonies for the melody (each guitar a seperate track) The walking bass is a guitar not a bass. Anyways hope you enjoy :):):)

Mônica da Silva is a Brazilian American singer, songwriter, and multi instrumentalist. She grew up living between the Midwest, United States, and Belém, Brazil, a city on the Amazon River. A love of travel and foreign language helped to forge her unique sound, a genre she calls "Indie Nova". Bringing her cultural diversity to her songs, she smoothly flows between languages (English, Portuguese, Spanish, and French), and takes her listeners on a journey. Through her music, da Silva hopes to expose people to different cultures, sounds, and new ways of thinking.
 
Paralleling her life, da Silva's music contains an eclectic mix of Brazilian and American influences. Her sound can be classified as International Fusion, as it is heavily influenced by Brazilian music, namely Bossa Nova, but also incorporates elements of French Pop, Lounge, Electronica, Indie Pop, and Worldbeat.
  
In 2010, da Silva released her album “Brasilissima”. The record features songs in English and Portuguese. The first single “Aí Então”, was chosen by Putumayo World Music to be included on their compilation “Brazilian Beat”. The upbeat, psychedelic track “That’s Not The Way” was included in the programming of The World Cup 2014. Another song from that album "Push Me Away", was licensed by Patron Tequila in 2015, for their video "The Making of The Bottle".  
 
In 2017, da Silva's song "Back To His Girl" was featured in the Golden Globe Award winning film "Lady Bird". Her latest single “Soldado de Amor” (2017), was nominated for a 2018 International Brazilian Press Award. The track was featured in the BBC One series "The Replacement”, in the 2018 Paramount Network series "American Woman", and appeared in the 2019 Fall Campaign for the American fashion label Tory Burch. She is currently recording a new, full-length album, as well as writing and recording with her project, Complicated Animals.
