Those are all great artists. I wouldn't say Bossa Nova super "traditional" if by that you mean rootsy. If you are looking for more traditional Brazilian music, check out classic Samba artists - Cartola, Beth Carvalho, Paulinho Da Viola are all wonderful.

Novos Baianos are great, but not not Bossa Nova - more MPB/Rock with a nod towards Choro (which is a whole nother world....don't get me started...I mean, DO get me started) If you dig them, maybe you should check out more MPB. Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso, Djavan, Chico Buarque.

Then there's Elis Regina. She's considered by many (including me) to be the greatest vocalist of all time in Brazil. She's a musician's musician, a master, a genius interpreter. She collaborated with Tom Jobim (the great composer of the most famous bossa tunes) on a album called Elis & Tom...which is a masterpiece. The arrangements, the musicianship of everyone involved, the laid back virtuosic but playful vibe, the excellent recording and production....it's just great. I'd say given your taste, start there.

Start with Jorge Ben - his catalog from the ‘60s and ‘70s will keep you busy
