Internationally acclaimed Brazilian composer, musician, and singer Marcos Valle proudly reintroduces his self-titled album, "Marcos Valle," a vibrant testament to the artist's unmatched influence on global music and the Brazilian soundscape.
Marcos Valle, born in Rio de Janeiro in 1943, has traversed an extraordinary musical journey—from his classic bossa nova roots to inventive fusions with soul, funk, rock, and jazz.

“Marcos Valle” boasts groove-heavy basslines, smooth funk influences, and the instantly infectious single “Estrelar,” Valle’s best-selling track, celebrated for its blend of boogie and Brazilian rhythm. Valle’s songwriting, unique melodic sense, and genre-bending productions have made him a perennial favorite—from Rio’s Copacabana to London’s legendary Jazz Cafe.
