A still more personal influence on the new sound is Caetano's son Moreno, who produced the album. Caetano performs at the Orpheum in Boston this Friday.
In today's Boston Herald, Caetano Veloso lays out a complex path of inspirations for his new record, Cê, from Brazilian singers of the 1930s all the way up to the Arctic Monkeys and Animal Collective today, with stops at vintage-era Talking Heads along the way. A still more personal influence on the new sound is Caetano's son Moreno, who produced the album, as well as his younger sons Zeca, 15, and Tom, 10 (the latter only recently taking up the family interest in music after years with a solid focus on soccer). As Caetano tells the Herald, "These three are the best things in my life."
