Marcos Valle (born September 14, 1943 in Rio de Janeiro) is a Brazilian singer, songwriter and record producer. His work has found success across many musical styles both within Brazil and in the rest of the world, including bossa nova, samba, incidental music for drama, and fusions of American/European rock and dance music with Brazilian styles.

In 1966, his composition "So Nice (Summer Samba)" was recorded by Walter Wanderley and became a Top 40 hit in the USA. By 1968, he was signed to Verve Records, and his debut album "Samba '68" achieved wide and lasting recognition for songs such as "Crickets sing for Anamaria".

1975 saw Valle move to the United States, where many collaborations and much solo work followed.
