Editor's note

Xênia França's spiritual Brazilian soul

A singer from Salvador who blends Afro-Brazilian traditions with jazz and contemporary sounds.

If you want to hear what she does, start with 'Breu' or 'Renascer'. They frame that blend of spiritual tradition and contemporary sound she's built.

Her music carries the deep rhythms of Salvador while feeling completely present. Songs like 'Breu' show how she weaves elements from Candomblé into something that sounds both ancestral and new. She's not just referencing tradition, she's living in it, singing about resilience and social themes with a voice that has both power and nuance.

She put out her self-titled debut in 2017, followed by 'Rastilho' in 2019 and 'Mironga' in 2022. Along the way, she's worked with artists like Rashid on 'Laranja Mecânica' and built a regular ensemble with guitarist Bruno Buarque and others.
