Lani Hall United States
Biography
Hall first came to be known to the public at large when she joined the second Brasil project of Bossa Nova master Sergio Mendes, Brasil '66. Unlike the previous incarnation, Brasil '66 was an instant success - making a significant impact on the charts with its first single, a version of the Brazilian song "Mais Que Nada". Much of the song's appeal was due to the distinctive, multi-tracked vocals of Hall. A series of popular interpretations followed, including their take on The Beatles' "Fool on the Hill".
