Gal Costa

Gal Costa (1969) is a self-titled album that sits at the crossroads of MPB, Tropicália-era experimentation, and psychedelic rock. It pairs Gal Costa's flexible, expressive voice with arrangements that mix Brazilian rhythmic and melodic elements with electric instrumentation and studio effects, producing an adventurous, avant-garde sound that reflects the late 1960s push to expand popular music vocabulary in Brazil.
