Brazilian Artists: Ivete Sangalo

For those "gringos" that enjoy the brazilian music, I will start to post the bibliograph of some of the best Brazilian artists in different music styles. I decided to start with a muse of the Axe Music, and responsible for one the best carnivals in Brazil: Ivete Sangalo.

Born in the countryside of Bahia, Ivete got interested in music as a child. She debuted as a singer in nightclubs in the capital of Bahia (Salvador). The professional debut happened in 1992. She became leader of Banda Eva, who released its first album on Sony Music. The follow-up album, "Pra Abalar" (Polygram) enjoyed three hit tracks: "Alô, Paixão", "Pra Abalar" and "Flores". Her last album with Banda Eva was "Eva, Você e Eu", which featured a song written by Ivete, named "Carro Velho". The six albums released by Banda Eva sold 4 million copies. Turned into a sex symbol, Ivete went for a solo career, releasing her album, named after herself, in 1999. In 2000, she released the album "Beat Beleza".
