  • Luanda Jones

    Luanda Jones, originally from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, has been singing and composing professionally for more than ten years. Born into a musical family, she has lived and breathed music from a very early age, sharing her home with a veteran rocker in father Luis Moreno, and mother Irinéa Maria, a composer of bossa nova. Luanda is now living in Toronto, Canada, where she has performed at a number of venues opening for such esteemed local and international artists as Lal, Badi Assad, Carmen Souza and Maracatu Nunca Antes.Luanda performs not only her own original compositions, but also a few MPB classics by the likes of Tom Jobim, Gilberto Gil,Jorge Benjor, Caetano Veloso and Carmem Miranda interpreted with her own unique flair.


    Luanda é cantora e compositora e está na estrada há mais de 10 anos. Brasileira (do Rio de Janeiro), filha de músicos, desde cedo conviveu com duas vertentes musicais. O lado Bossa-nova, veio da mãe (Irinéa Maria Ribeiro-compositora) e o lado pop rock,do pai (Luis Moreno-baterista). No seu repertório,Luanda toca(voz e violão) músicas próprias e alguns clássicos da MPB, rearranjando alguns dos sucessos de compositores como Tom Jobim, Gil, Jorge Benjor, Caetano Veloso,entre outros.
