Adriana Calcanhotto is a Brazilian MPB singer, composer, and guitarist from Brazil. Her multi-octave vocal range and signature phrasing are articulated through complex, idiosyncratic, sophisticated compositions that cut across samba, bossa nova, rock, pop, and ballads at will. Enguiço, her 1990 debut album, offered canny covers of tunes by MPB and samba legends. By contrast, 1992's charting Senhas was completely self-written and produced. 1994's smash A Fábrica Do Poema balanced originals with carefully chosen covers, and 1998's Maritimo kicked off an experimental pop trilogy about the sea composed of covers. 2008's Maré, the star-studded second volume, offered covers by a who's-who of Brazilian songwriters. 2011's O Micróbio Do Samba offered only 21st century sambas. 2018's Margem concluded the final part of her MPB oceanic trilogy and was the most popular volume of all. Só appeared in 2020 and Errante in 2023.
