hydrophonic has some good suggestions. If you like Tania Maria, (Jazz inflected samba/bossa) I'd say that Maria Rita's self-titled CD from 2004 is a great place to start.
Also, you can't go wrong with Luciana Souza.
If you want more uptempo material, you could check out Elza Soares, who has a brassy voice and a huge personality.
It looks like both hydrophonic and I are assuming that you're looking for other female vocalists. posted by umbú at 10:57 AM on May 31, 2006
Jorge Ben Jor is a man, but he is Brazilian and much of his music is uptempo and jazz/rock-infused. I've really been digging his work recently. posted by muddgirl at 9:05 PM on May 31, 2006
