About Me

Letícia comes from an extremely musical family. The piano of the father (the maestro Estevão Oliveira) together with the ‘pandeiros’, ´surdos´ (percussion brazilian instruments) and guitars of the uncles announced the mix that would influence her. Letícia sings brazilian music, she sings samba, soul and Hip Hop. She is the mix of old tendencies bringing novelties. With emotions and sympathy, she doses vocal potency and sings on the ear, showing personality. When she was 6 years old she learned piano. Since 10 she record backings. She started singing on the night with 16. With 19 she got into the most famous Soul Music Band of the south of Brazil (The Hard Working Band – with 3 recorded CDs) where she had a lot of success during 7 years. Besides this work with the group, she started her solo career. She won the Açorianos Prize of better interpreter. Her song ´Babalanceia´ was classified on the Coca-Cola Music Mixer Festival and was played on the main radios of the south of Brazil. She moved to São Paulo looking for new challenges. 2003 was a decisive year for her to stand in the city. She sang in the project New Divas of MPB, coordinated by Guga Stroeter. Jair Rodrigues was the singers´ paranymph; she performed on the celebrations of the 450 years of São Paulo and took part, during 4 months, of a beginners program of Record TV. In 2004 she performed with Hip Hop groups from São Paulo. She sang on night clubs and events. Recorded jingles and backings. She got into ULM – Tom Jobim Music Free University – to study popular singing. Presented her show ´Babalanceia´ at Blen Blen night club, showing her compositions. She has invited a goog musician team; showed up her work and made a good divulgation. From the eulogies of the presentation it was born the need of recording a demo, preview of the future CD. In the meadle of 2005, Letícia interrupted her proper work to take part on a new talents program of Globo TV. Back, she continued her independent road.

Member Since: 10/18/2006
Band Website: blog.leticia.zip.net
Band Members: Letícia is followed bass, guitar, drums, percussion, keyboard, pick-ups, metals, backings and a very professional executive production.With this structure, together with the interpretation, simpathy, carism and actitude of Letícia, the show is spontaneous, dancing and unlusable!
Influences: The Cores Show brings authorial songs and rhythms like soul, samba, mpb, hip hop and pop rock. It was performed, this year, with a lot of success at Diquinta night club in São Paulo: the first on January 26th, afterwards on March 23rd and the last on July 27th. On all the three opportunities, the public danced by the sound of the authorial songs Babalanceia (Eduardo Prestes, Letícia and Edson Walter), Manifesto Sarará (Eduardo Prestes and Letícia), Bomba Relógio (Eduardo Prestes and Letícia), Chance (João Venturini) and the song Cores (Eduardo Prestes) that names the show. Letícia also makes rereadings of song like “O Telefone tocou novamente” and “Mas que nada” (Jorge Benjor); “Primavera”, “Gostava tanto de você” and Bom senso (Tim Maia), “Olhos coloridos” (Macau); “Tive razão” (Seu Jorge); “Serrado” (Djavan); “A beleza é você menina” and “Neguinho poeta” (Bebeto); “Como” (Luis Wagner); “Samplemidiaway” (new from Bedeu); “Vapor barato” (O Rappa); “Dívida” (Ultramen); “Todos estão surdos” (Roberto Carlos); “Aonde você quiser” (Jackson Five); “If ain’t got you” (Alicia Keys) and “That thing” (Lauryn Hill).
Sounds Like: Bomba Relógio (Time Bomb) - Real story that had happened with Letícia at Bras subway station in São Paulo. It denounces the daily violence of the big cities: “…it´s the lie of last election, time bomb to be detuned…” says the lyric. Cores (Colors) - Letícia shows that she knows how to rhyme, mixing the love of her life and the love for Brazil. Samplemidiaway - It´s a Samba, the brazilian music by excellence. Talks about the influence of new technologies (like Sampler) mixed with pandeiro and guitar and a lot of swing.Babalanceia - It´s a neologism created by Letícia to explain the cultural swing of the brazilian people to face the day-to-day. The song is a dancing pop with conscience.
