Nery Neto is a Brazilian singer-songwriter from Petrolina, Pernambuco. His music draws from forró and sertanejo traditions, though he's found a wider audience with straightforward pop ballads. In 2019, his single 'És Bem-vinda' became a national hit, a song about unrequited love that connected with listeners across Brazil.
He's released several albums since then, including 'Eu Prometo' in 2020 and 'Pra Você' in 2021. That latter song was at the center of plagiarism accusations in 2021, which Neto denied. His catalog includes tracks like 'Eu Posso Ver,' 'Deus Não Deixa de Ser Bom,' and 'Família Sagrada,' a collaboration with Pe. Cleidimar Moreira.
Neto performs with a band that includes João Neto on bass, Gabriel Lima on drums, and Fábio Barros on keyboards. He's worked with other Brazilian artists like Gusttavo Lima and Marília Mendonça. His music continues to find listeners who respond to its direct emotional appeal.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
