| CeU Announces US Fall Tour “There's a fresh new face on the Brazilian music scene,” proclaimed National Public Radio's Morning Edition in April of this year. With a chorus of press plaudits and two sold-out US tours behind her, Brazilian singer-songwriter CeU (pronounced “Cell” with a light “L”) returns to the US with a highly anticipated sixteen-date fall tour that will kick off in East Lansing, MI on October 16, 2007. CeU's April 3, 2007 self-titled release on Six Degrees Records has sold over 75,000 copies and scored unprecedented chart numbers for a Brazilian female artist - #1 on Billboard's World Music charts (cracking the nearly two-year domination of Celtic Women), #1 on Billboard's Heatseekers (New Artist) Chart, and #57 on the Billboard Hot 100. CeU's momentum continues to build with her beautiful album cover gracing the high-profile Apple iPhone commercials, and her stunning 2007 Pan American Games opening ceremony performance becoming recognized worldwide. Accompanied by her So Paulo-based band, CeU brings her “Indefinable, seductive and compellingly original set of songs that incorporate jazz, reggae, R&B, Brazilian and much more”(Miami Herald). write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Jazz News :: home page |
