A Passing Fancy: Luca Mundaca and "Há Dias"



Our random tune for today is by Luca Mundaca, a Brazilian singer-songwriter, composer and arranger who won the 2008 Independent Music Award in the world fusion category. Now living in New York, she has been praised for her songs that polish the melodic roots of Brazil with a contemporary buff to create modern gems. She has also been praised for the emotion and intimacy present in her voice, adding poignancy to her brilliant melodies and profound lyrics. You can find this song, Há Dias, on her 2007 album Day by Day and on the compilation CD Putumayo Presents: Brazilian Lounge (2006).
