Vanessa da Mata (born Vanessa Sigiane da Mata Ferreira on February 10, 1976) is a Brazilian singer, songwriter, bookwriter and model.
As her names suggests (in Portuguese "da Mata" means "from the forest") is a force of nature. This singer and composer cannot play all the instruments, but she has an overt musicality. She gathers more than 250 compositions in book notes and tapes which she always carries in her purse. Before her debut album brought her name into the spotlight, many artists recorded some of her songs. One of them, Chico César pushed for making her compositions more famous in Brazil.
