Laura de Brito is a singer from Lisbon, Portugal. Her music draws on fado, jazz, and Portuguese folk sounds, though she often works them into something more contemporary. In 2015, her debut single 'Anormal' caught on with listeners, its title and mood speaking to a sense of being different.
She records and performs with a loose group of musicians, including guitarist Pedro Augusto, drummer Mário Delgado, and bassist André Coelho. Her albums, like 'Anormal', 'Transparente', and 'Rosa', mix electronic and indie elements with those older Portuguese styles. The songs tend to deal with love, personal identity, and acceptance.
Her lyrics and public statements about gender and mental health have drawn criticism at times, but she's kept writing from that perspective. Another of her well-known tracks is 'Me Guia Senhor'. She puts out music that feels direct and a little raw, without much polish or grand production.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
