David Bencio

David Bencio came up in Uberlândia, Minas Gerais. He started singing gospel music as a teenager and put out his first album in 1999. That record was called 'Te Darei a Paz,' and the title track became a staple in Brazilian churches.

His songs like 'Aliança' and 'Ao Pé Da Cruz' are straightforward worship music, built around simple melodies and clear declarations of faith. He's been recording for over two decades, with albums coming out every few years into the 2010s.

Bencio's music has found an audience in Brazil's evangelical community. He's one of those artists whose work is more familiar inside that world than outside it, known for songs that function as congregational hymns.
