Ed Motta: Brazilian Music Star With Katia Moraes & More

Brazilian favorite Ed Motta hits Hollywood on his latest U.S. tour with his famously eclectic style, combining elements of MPB (Musica Popular Brasileira), rock, soul, funk, bossa nova, jazz and reggae. DJ Potira spins urban and Brazilian beats to open and close this sure-to-be-steaming show, along with singer-songwriter and L.A. favorite Katia Moraes and MPB artist Daniel Carneiro. Motta was only 16 when his 1988 debut disc "Conexão Japeri" became a huge hit, and he's since released more than a dozen albums and film soundtracks, along with scoring an '06 Latin Grammy nomination.
