Lenine Essentials

Lenine Essentials

Nobody can sing an acoustic number and then turn around and rock out like Lenine. He arrived too late to be part of the first MPB explosion but it's in his DNA. His music sounds like rock ‘n' roll and Bahia's rhythms are engaged in a dance-off. The guy is an incredible (and incredibly prolific) songwriter. He's been in demand almost since he first came on the scene in the early 1980s. And while he has an endless supply of songs welling up inside him, he's not possessive—he's constantly handing them off to the likes of Sergio Mendes, Tim Maia or Gilberto Gil.
