Luciana Souza is a Grammy-winning Brazilian vocalist and songwriter whose music blurs the boundaries between the various strains of traditional and popular music from her homeland, jazz, and modern classical music. She has worked with an astonishing variety of musicians including her uncle Hermeto Pascoal, Steve Lacy, John Patitucci, Joey Calderazzo, and Oscar Castro-Neves. Following her acclaimed 1999 debut, An Answer to Your Silence, she gained wider attention after taking home a Grammy for her featured performance on Herbie Hancock's River: The Joni Letters. She delivered Brazilian standards in a duo setting accompanied only by a guitarist on Brazilian Duos I-III, led a small jazz ensemble on 2009's Tide, and sang wordlessly with full expressive vigor on 2015's Speaking in Tongues. In 2020, she joined Vince Mendoza and the WDR Big Band for Storytellers and collaborated with Brazil's Trio Corrente on 2023's Cometa.
