Bemti

Brazilian singer-songwriter Bemti plays a contemporary take on a traditional and almost forgotten instrument called Viola Caipira (Brazilian 10-string Guitar) that evolved from the Portuguese Guitar. Singing in Portuguese and English, he mixes Folk, Indie Pop, 'Caipira' Music and MPB (Popular Brazilian Music), exploring a wide range of emotions and references through the eyes of a LGBTQIA+ person. Bemti released his first album "era dois" in 2018 and since then surpassed 4 million plays on Spotify only, touring all over Brazil and different countries in Latin America and Europe, including important brazilian festivals and sold out concerts in Lisbon (Portugal) and Buenos Aires (Argentina). His 2nd album, "Logo Ali", was acclaimed by critics and ranks in 20th place in a compilation of 120 lists of Best Brazilian Albums of 2021 ("Lista das Listas") and features collaborations with major Brazilian and Portuguese artists like Fernanda Takai, Jaloo and Murais.
