Brazil, Political Music and Sharing Powerful Messages w/ Bia Ferreira

Music Travel Guide


Bia Ferreira, a Brazilian singer, composer, and multi-instrumentalist, stands out for her innovative approach to combining Afrodiasporic rhythms – like soul, R&B, reggae and rap – with Brazilian music – such as samba and repente.

She is known for her straightforward lyrics addressing important topics like necropolitics, racial quotas, anti-racism, women's rights, LGBTQIAP+ rights, and affection.

She's been also one of the strongest "voices" against Jair Bolsonaro inside and outside Brazil. Her shows are full of music, love and speeches.

I catch up with Bia before her show at Dürchluften Festival 2024.

In our conversation, we talked about her musical influences, why she focuses on making political music, her debut album Igreja Lesbiteriana, Um Chamado, and all things sharing powerful messages through music.

Absolutely a spiritual time chatting with her!

I hope you will enjoy the experience. 🎧
