Luciana Araujo was born in Fortaleza, Brazil. At only 14 years of age Luciana started singing professionally at very important parties and venues of her hometown, and soon started studying singing techniques and contemporaneous dance for a better performance on stage. Her first public appearance in TV was in 1998, when she won first place in a famous singing contest called “Tempo de Alegriaâ€, produced by one of the largest TV channels in Brazil (SBT) and broadcasted throughout the whole country. Two years later, she took part in a New Talent Competition created by a very well known TV show called “Domingão do Faustãoâ€, broadcasted by TV Globo for the whole nation, and was chosen as one of the 13 finalists, out of the 30,000 participants. In 2001, TV SIC from Portugal invited her over to present at their program called “SIC 10 horasâ€. Until the year of 2005, Luciana sang at all the biggest events and concerts of Fortaleza together with some of the most famous musicians of her hometown, such as the group Marajazz, and so she moved to Sao Paulo seeking more promising opportunities for her career as a singer. A few months later, she performed in another famous TV show called “Programa Raul Gil†(TV Record) and such was the success she was asked to return. Luciana has already sung all the different musical styles during her career, but has her heart set on contemporaneous Brazilian Popular Music, what made her start a new project in 2007. Together with producer Bruno Cardozo and other great professionals, such as the bass player Marcelo Mariano and the musician Pepe Cisneiros, she produced great songs in collaboration with other Brazilian composers, and also covered a version of a song originally recorded by the Portuguese group The Gift. All these songs have never been released before in Brazil and will be part of her first album. Furthermore, Luciana speaks English, Italian and Spanish, also writes songs both in Portuguese and English. Talent and professionalism are inherent qualities to this singer for whom success is the next stop.
