She seriously can’t be called Laura Rizzotto, can she? Apparently that is her real name and she’s from that often under-utilised demographic of “Latvian-Brazilian” – being born to a father with dual citizenship in Rio – the capital of Samba.
She’s signed, it’s said, to Universal Brazil, and so coming to chilly Riga for a few weeks must have been a bit of a temperature shock!
Here’s the result and the song – and I’m not sure what I make of it – apart from it’s a girl in a dress singing something old-fashioned. But what do I know? One thing’s for sure, she’s rained on my parade. See what i did there?
