Born in Londrina, Brazil, vocalist, guitarist and arranger Téka blends the rhythms and harmonies of her homeland with the freedom of American jazz—a style she calls “New Bossa.” A graduate of São Paulo State University who later studied at Berklee College of Music, she has performed and recorded with Brazilian greats including Gilberto Gil, Hermeto Pascoal, Flora Purim and Airto Moreira. Her warm voice and easy rhythmic feel move naturally from bossa nova and samba to jazz and contemporary favorites. At The Grand, she is joined by Brian Mann on accordion, Randy Tico on bass and Kevin Winard on drums.
