Babi Benati grew up in Nova Lima, Minas Gerais, where both her parents were musicians. She started singing at local festivals as a teenager. Her debut album 'Fronteira' came out in 2014, with the title track becoming a notable song in her catalog.
Her music draws from Brazilian folk and rock, with influences that include Milton Nascimento and Elis Regina. She's worked with guitarist Mateus Asato and released albums like 'Quintal' in 2017 and 'Terra' in 2020. Another track, 'Pressa,' appears among her most recognized songs.
Benati's lyrics often touch on social issues, which has led to some public disagreements about her performances at political events. She continues to write and record, putting out 'Tempo' in 2023 with her regular band members.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
