    Congratulations to Caetano Veloso, an eight-time Latin Grammy winner and two-time Grammy winner, who was celebrated as the 2012 Latin Recording Academy Person of the Year last night in Las Vegas.

A portion of the proceeds from the gala will benefit Veloso's chosen charity, Fundación Viva Cazuza in Brazil, as well as The Latin Recording Academy's outreach and education programs. The celebration preceded the XIII Annual Latin Grammy Awards, which will be broadcast live on the Univision Network tonight at 8 PM ET.

About this Album

Manhattan bossa nova / rock duo Arto Lindsay and Peter Scherer produce; Bill Frisell guest stars. Brazilian legend Veloso, says the New York Times, displays "a singing and songwriting voice that is attuned in an unusually cosmopolitan yet poetic way to the world's musical crosscurrents."
