Adriana Calcanhotto Biography

Adriana Calcanhotto is one of the most popular and richest World Music Singer who was born on October 3, 1965 in Brazil, Brazil. Singer- songwriter trademarked for her melancholic pop music, she debuted in 1990 and would go on to release over a dozen successful albums over her nearly three decade long career.

Close friends with Marisa Monte, the fellow singer was featured on her 2008 album Maré on their rendition of Marina Lima‘s “Três.”

Born from musician Carlos Calcanhotto (originally Calcagnotto) of Italian origin from Volpago del Montello, Veneto, and from a Brazilian dancer. Adriana’s first album, called Enguiço, was released in 1990 and consisted mostly of covers of well known MPB (Brazilian pop) songs, part of the repertoire she used to perform as a singer in restaurants and bars in Porto Alegre. It included only one original composition, the title track. It spawned her first hit, a cover of Caetano Veloso’s Naquela Estação, which became successful thanks to it being included in the soundtrack of the primetime soap Rainha da Sucata, one of the most watched in history of Brazilian television.

1992 saw the release of Senhas, which included the hits “Mentiras” and “Esquadros” and was followed by a successful national tour. In 1994, Adriana, sporting a new look (short black hair as opposed to the slightly longer bright blond haircut she’d had since the beginning of her career) released A Fábrica do Poema, considered by many to be her most poetic album. She collaborated with lyricists like Waly Salomão and António Cícero (brother and constant musical partner of fellow singer Marina Lima) and included the hits “Metade” and “Inverno”. This was followed by Maritmo (a combination of the words marítimo (maritime) and ritmo (rhythm)), a concept album intended as the first part of a trilogy having water as a main theme.

Her father, Carlos Calcanhotto, was an Italian musician. Her mother was a Brazilian dancer. She was married to film director Suzana de Moraes from 2010 until 2015.
