Bossavision: Brazilian Taste on Eurovision in Bossa Nova style

The Greek companies, Eurocovers and Planetworks, have created a project with Eurovision Song Contest hits (mostly Greek songs) and covered the songs in the Bosso Nova style with Brazilian singers and released the album Bossavision.

The project was mainly the work of Eurocovers with the organising coordinators, Easy Coutiel and Nektarios Tyrakis. The songs are covered in the studio by famous singers in Brazil like Barbara Mendes, Danielle Procopio, Zeca Rodrigues and so on.
