Born Today in 1977

Maria Rita began singing professionally at age 24. Maria Rita, released domestically in late 2003 and internationally in 2004, spawned two big hits, the aforementioned “A Festa” and “Cara Valente.” On the heels of the album’s blockbuster success — both critical and commercial — Rita released a similarly self-titled DVD that captured her 2004 live performance at Bourbon Street in São Paulo. Among the awards won by Rita in 2004 were Latin Grammys for Best New Artist and Best MPB Album.
