The combination of singing and dancing has always been Daniela Mercury s trademark since 1981 when she participated in the carnival parade of Salvador de Bahia. On top of one of the huge sound trucks. As performer of the danceable axé music she soon conquered the rest of Brazil and all corners of the world. The concerts are always a joy to visit. Her very intensive training as a dancer made it possible for Daniela to impress everyone that she was a singing dancer. She never seems out of breath, always singing with razor sharp timing, switching her microphone from one hand to the other. She is by far one of Brazil s best selling artists. On Virtual Vinyl Daniela mixes various styles to tell her story. A story that she expresses in the picture on the cover of the album. It s a reference to the Peace, Love and Freedom manifesto by John Lennon and Yoko Ono in the early 1970s. The picture itself is an analogy to the one of John and Yoko on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine in 1981. This is it, this is our relationship is what Lennon said about the photo. On her picture, Daniela sublimates the relationship with her wife, journalist Malu Vercosa, whom she married in October, 2013. Virtual Vinyl sounds like the album Daniela Mercury always wanted to make.
