SEU JORGE Brazilian singer Seu Jorge is best known in the U.S. as the guy who sang Bowie in Portuguese in The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou; last year Hollywood Records released a collection of 13 of his Bowie covers, trumping the five on the movies sound-track album. But Jorge's own albums, like last year's Cru (Wrasse), are filled with superior originals. A new DVD, Live at Montreux 2Q05 (Eagle Eye Media), captures him at his best; he's backed by a quintet that brings an insistent pulse to his scrappy tunes, which mingle samba with some rock flourishes, and though his husky voice has a limited range, he's got charisma and soul to burn. Cru was recorded nearly two years ago, so hopefully Jorge will preview new songs here. See also Thursday. Jehro opens 9 PM, Metro, 3730 N. Clark, 773-549-0203 or 312-559-1212, $25, 18+. -Peter Margasak
