Vera’s Heartbeat presents An Evening with Zé Renato

Vera’s Heartbeat presents an evening with legendary Brazilian singer, songwriter, and guitarist Zé Renato featuring John Leftwich and special guests as part of the Songs a Vera series at Resident. The evening will include songs from his brilliant career and other beloved compositions that are part of his life. Besides being an extraordinary songwriter and guitarist, Zé Renato is acclaimed for his beautiful voice, seasoned throughout almost four decades with the vocal and instrumental quartet Boca Livre.

Zé Renato is celebrating almost 50 years of career with the solo album “Quando a Noite Vem” (When the Evening Comes) and with the news that Boca Livre has been nominated for Best Latin Pop Album in the 2023 Grammy Awards with the album “Pasieros”, recorded alongside the renowned Panamanian artist Rubén Blades.

Marcel Camargo & Jessica Jeza will open the evening with new material from their forthcoming record, which is a mix of original music, Argentine Tangos, Bach pieces, Brazilian Sambas and Jazz Standards, all in reinvented arrangements. Jess and Marcel have been performing as a duo for over ten years, showing a palpable symbiosis that is wonderful to experience in a live setting.
