"Singing in both Portuguese and English, Daniela Soledade's debut album displays her mastery of classic samba and bossa nova standards, with some pleasing surprises, including "Ninho." The entire album builds toward that original composition by demonstrating Soledade's mastery of the form and highlighting the pristine clarity of her vocals. That sort of skill makes sense, though, given her familial past..."

"Following in her father’s and grandfather’s footsteps, vocalist Daniela Soledade is making her mark on the Brazilian jazz world...the singer evinces the quiet, intimate style of João Gilberto as she caresses the lyric — in English and Portuguese — with apparent affection, her voice riding the rising and falling guitar accompaniment and subtle percussion."

ALL ABOUT JAZZ

"...the album frames the luminous tone and mature interpretive powers of the singer-singing in both English and Portuguese. A legacy-related back story lends added depth to Soledade's unfolding musical saga—she belongs to a sparkling lineage of great Brazilian artists, ranging from her grandfather Paulo—collaborator with Antonio Carlos Jobim, Vinicius De Moraes, Baden Powell and other Brazilian legends."

"A poster for the original production of Orfeu da Conceição hanging in her father’s Copacabana apartment provides a constant reminder of Daniela Soledade’s deep bossa nova roots...A devotee of the bossa sound, Soledade casts a wide net on the album...she renders every song with bossa nova’s sensuous pulse and distilled dynamics."

"With the release of her intimate, tenderly inviting and exquisitely produced and arranged debut album A Moment of You...Daniela Soledade adds a wonderful fresh chapter to important legacy that harkens back to the birth and development of bossa nova. Her grandfather Paulo Soledade helped build the foundations of Brazilian music, composing with Antonio Carlos Jobim, Vinicius de Moraes, Toquinho, Baden Powell and others in the pioneering phase of bossa nova..."

MÚSICA BRASILEIRA

A Moment of You is classic Bossa Nova without falling in the traps of overplayed Bossa Nova songs. There are a few stellar contributions adding to the whole Bossa flavor. Duduka da Fonseca brings his drums and percussion to four of the ten tracks in the album...However, it is undeniably Soledade’s voice and her sterling guitarist Nate Najar and haunting sax player Jeff Rupert who will bring back to front and center another classic Bossa Nova album...Her phrasing and vocals are tender and outstanding. She sings both in Portuguese and English and shows great command of this fine repertoire…"

BIO

Daniela Soledade is a rising star among legends in the Brazilian music scene. An heir 

to the throne of bossa nova, Soledade is highly acclaimed for her poignantly expressive vocal style and hyper-intimate aesthetic. Drawing from an amalgamation of 

authentic bossa nova, samba, MPB, and American Popular Song, Soledade is the new sound of Bossa Nova. 

Born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Soledade’s family roots are steeped in Bossa Nova’s inception. Her grandfather, Paulo Soledade composed popular song with renowned Bossa Nova founders Antônio Carlos Jobim, Vinicius de Moraes, Toquinho, Baden Powell, Fernando Lobo, and others. 

With a deep love of music embedded in her DNA, Soledade’s singing career began at a young age. As a child, she frequented the top recording studios in Rio de Janeiro, observing and performing with her father, musician and producer Paulinho Soledade. Soledade says of her early musical influences, “Music has been my driving force since as far as I can remember, and continues to be my main passion and inspiration every single day.” 

In 2019, Soledade established herself as the new sound of Bossa Nova with the release of her debut album A Moment of You. Featuring songs in both English and Portuguese, Downbeat Magazine praised the album as “a careful curation of compositions... each of them contributing the perfect nuanced sound, intimacy, harmonious melodies and poetic rhythms while injecting the music with much needed freshness.” 

A brilliant collaborator, Soledade has worked with many well-known artists in Brazilian music. Recent collaborations include Bossa Nova pioneer Roberto Menescal—the music video for his song "Rio'' features Soledade's English lyrics—as well as a recording with the composer of "Pretty World" Antonio Adolfo. 

Today, Daniela Soledade’s deep passion for connecting with her listeners through her love of music extends beyond the stage. Boasting a robust online presence, the vocalist regularly publishes thoughtfully curated content including a rigorous recording and video release schedule. During 2020 Soledade teamed up with guitarist and producer Nate Najar to livestream a weekly duo concert series 

entitled “Love & Bossa Nova.” Running for over a year, the series was featured by JazzTimes hailing both Soledade’s “exquisite vocals” and Najar’s “masterful” guitar playing. 

Alongside the singer’s well-received live concert streams, Soledade also enjoys success across multiple digital streaming platforms. Notable releases include the popular single and accompanying music video, “Você'' which was filmed in Soledade's hometown of Rio de Janeiro. 

In addition to Daniela Soledade’s performances in the U.S. and around the world, fans can enjoy a continuous stream of new releases. At the heart of the Soledade’s prolific creative drive is a genuine intention to connect. Her performances are elegant and nuanced, as well as highly sought-after for their delicate intimacy.
