Flávia Souza

Flávia Souza grew up singing in church choirs on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro. Her debut album in 2006, named for the song 'A Mulher Que Teme Ao Senhor,' found a national audience with its straightforward gospel sound.

Her music tends toward devotional themes, with songs like 'A Última Palavra É de Deus' and 'Espírito Santo' reflecting that focus. She's kept recording since that first album, working within Brazilian gospel circles.

In 2010, there was some public discussion about similarities between one of her songs and another artist's work, though nothing formal came of it. She kept making music afterward, with tracks like 'Hoje' and 'Se Quiser' appearing in her catalog in the years that followed.
