About Me

I am a singer from São Paulo, Brazil now based in London, UK.I developed my passion for music listening to my grandfather's accordion and my father's guitar when I was a little girl in Sao Paulo's countryside, but it was only at college, when my friends and I formed a pop/rock band, that I started singing, and from that point on, I went on to sing in numerous bars and clubs in São Paulos Vila Olímpia district.My repertoire encompasses not only classics of Bossa Nova but also sambas, old and new, Brazilian popular music, jazz and original songs created in partnership with Jonathan Preiss, a fantastic guitar player and producer.I have been touring England with the widely respected choro/samba group Caratinga. Alongside concert appearances I have also performed at private events in some of Londons most exclusive five-star venues, including the Lanesborough Hotel, Annabells, the Landmark Hotel and Kew Gardens.
