Timeline

1978

Tuca was obese for most of her life. As Françoise Hardy recounted in her autobiography, “Tuca came up with the following equation: ‘You don’t eat: you die. You eat: you die. I eat.’ Unfortunately, when she returned to Brazil ... she gained 90 extra pounds and decided to lose them. An unscrupulous doctor helped her lose weight too fast, her potassium rate fell, and she died before she knew what was happening.” She died in 1978 at 34 years old.

1971

Tuca played guitar, co-arranged, and co-wrote most of the songs on Hardy's 1971 album La Question. After a month of rehearsal, Hardy and Tuca recorded the album in Paris in a few days. Although it sold poorly at the time, La Question has gone on to become perhaps Hardy's best-known record. Richie Unterberger quoted Hardy as saying, “It’s the only album that I re-listen to regularly, and I find that it still holds a punch.”

1966

Tuca studied classical music at the Musical and Dramatic Conservatory of São Paulo. As a young woman, she released two albums in Brazil: Meu, Eu in 1966, and Eu, Tuca on the Philips label in 1968. Neither sold well, and in 1969 she moved to France to escape Brazil's repressive military regime. She was playing and singing in a Brazilian restaurant in Paris called La Feijoada when Françoise Hardy first encountered her music. As critic Diego Olivas wrote, “A brief trip to Brazil had shown Françoise that through Brazilian music she could escape her cutesy, pop image. With Tuca she could really explore new boundaries.”

1944

Tuca (born Valeniza Zagni da Silva, 17 October 1944 - 8 May 1978) was a Brazilian guitarist, songwriter, and singer. She is best known for her collaborations with Françoise Hardy on Hardy's album La Question, and with Nara Leao on Leao's album Dez Anos Depois, both released in 1971.
