Maria Luiza Jobim narrates his return to Rio de Janeiro and resumes his passion for the sea and the city in his second solo album, Blue (2023). Four years after the first solo album by the youngest daughter of Tom Jobim, White House (2019), the artist is inspired by living in the house in the Jardim Botânico neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro where she lived with her father until she was 11 years old.
“If White House is my origin, BlueAnd my gift. It’s how I act in the world. What I want and how I walk. I came back to myself after motherhood, healing, falling in love, coming and going. Life is light and shadow all the time. Blue and blue in the universe of emotions mean opposite things. Blue, in English, is to be sad and, in Portuguese, everything blue is an expression of joy. This duality in the same word conveys the idea of light and shadow on the record”, conceptualizes the artist.
