Joyce Moreno (BR)

Jazzhus Montmartre presents the legendary Brazilian singer and guitarist Joyce Moreno, a pioneer in the Bossa Nova genre and internationally renowned artist. With a career spanning since the 1960s, Moreno has been instrumental to Brazilian music as a female singer-songwriter with her own perspective—she was among the first women to write and perform Bossa Nova numbers from a female viewpoint.

Moreno's voice and guitar technique are unparalleled within the genre. The Guardian calls her "one of the foremost singer-guitarists in bossa nova," while JazzTimes praises her unforgettable vocal and harmonic finesse. She has collaborated with legendary artists such as Vinicius de Moraes, Lô Borges, and Sergio Mendes, and her songs have been recorded by titans including Elis Regina and Gal Costa. With over 35 albums released and an internationally recognized role as a pioneer for modern feminism in Brazil, she represents the authentic and elegant Bossa Nova sound from Rio's musical golden age.
