KA TELES formed in Brasília in 2005 around vocalist and songwriter Camila Teles. The band's 2012 album 'Um Novo Olhar' brought them wider attention, with its title track becoming something of an anthem for listeners drawn to their introspective style.
Their sound blends acoustic guitars with shimmering synths, anchored by Teles's haunting vocals. Songs like 'Qual É o Preço' and 'Granjear' reflect a consistent focus on personal themes and the search for meaning, which has defined their work even when it didn't align with more upbeat Brazilian pop trends.
While the lineup has included musicians like Bruno Melo on guitar and João Victer on drums, Camila Teles has remained the creative center. They've worked with artists such as Arnaldo Antunes and Marisa Monte, expanding their approach while maintaining their distinct voice in Brazilian music.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
