Mallu Magalhães, Brasil's "Mini-Feist"

According to MTV Brasil, Mallu Magalhães is the country's "mini-Feist" as well as "mini-Cat Power".  I think her acoustic/folksy/pop balladry is written well beyond her fifteen years on earth.  The songs on her myspace and the few videos on Youtube are well worth checking out.  Definitely download this song:

"Tchubaruba".mp3

She's a Brasillian with an amazing voice (though sings mostly in English) and an ability to write memorable pop songs...at 15!  Mallu is one artist I can't wait to follow over the years to come.

Hey, she is cool. Have you ever heard of Mira G.? She is not 15 but she is cool, some people compare her to Nico.

Check out her myspace

I can't stop listening to Acid Rain and In the middle of the road.

She is Brazilian too I think but she lives in US.

I adore both.
