Early life

Gilberto was born in New York City to Brazilian parents, Bossa nova pioneer Joo Gilberto, and Micha Micha, who were briefly living in the city at the time of her birth. She travelled with her father while recording albums in various countries; she lived in Mexico at the age of three and then migrated to Rio de Janeiro at age five. Gilberto's parents divorced when she was seven years old, and she and her mother spent her time in Rio de Janeiro and New York with her father. Gilberto has been performing since her youth in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Gilberto recalls that her childhood was "music nonstop"; when reflecting on her father's influence, Gilberto says, "He taught me to be a perfectionist." My mother showed me how to get it off. And I believe it's in my music today." She became acquainted with well-known artists, including Caetano Veloso, David Byrne, and Stan Getz, who often visited her father's house to collaborate. She began singing with her mother at a young age and appeared in professional musicals, such as Saltimbancos and Pirlimpimpim. Micha & Antônio Carlos Jobim (1977), she made her debut on her mother's first solo album at the age of seven. She and her mother and Stan Getz appeared at Carnegie Hall two years ago.

Career

Gilberto's professional solo debut came in 1986 with a WEA-titled EP that included "Preciso dizer que te amo," a collaboration between Cazuza and Dé Palmeira when both were in the Baro Vermelho group. Gilberto moved to Manhattan in 1991, where she lives now, but she also reflects on her time between the United States and Brazil.

Gilberto was a great friend of Cazuza and performed many songs with him, including "Amigos de Bar," "Mais Feliz," and "Mulher sem Razo."

Tanto Tempo, an electronic bossa nova album that came out in 2000, was a hit in clubs around the world and branded Gilberto as one of the top-selling Brazilian artists in the United States since the 1960s. Bebel Gilberto, her second album, mastered her sound to create an acoustic lounge style that reflected her Brazilian composer skills.

Momento (2007), her third album in seven years, she wanted to do a fusion of both. Momento reunited Gilberto's music's international character by combining the taste of Rio's Orquestra Imperial with the melting pot of New York's Brazilian Girls, and the setting of Madonna's "What It Feels Like for a Girl"). She was a judge for the 6th annual Independent Music Awards to promote independent artists' careers in 2007.

Gilberto's fourth studio album, All in One, was released in New York, Jamaica, and Bahia's Brazilian state. On September 29, 2009, it was released worldwide on the American jazz label Verve, and Universal Music released it in Brazil. It is the least electronic-infused of her albums, and it brings Gilberto's personality and passion for organic styles to the forefront. All in One was led by Mark Ronson (Amy Winehouse, Lily Allen), John King (Dust Brothers, Beck), Daniel Jobim, Carlinhos Brown, Didi Gutman (Brazilian Girls), and Mario Caldato Jr. (Beastie Boys, Björk, Jack Johnson). Eva in the animated film Rio (2011), Gilberto also performed the voice of the bird Eva, which she described as "amazing."

All proceeds from the sales will be donated to fight AIDS/HIV and other health and social problems.
