DA BAHIA A MINAS

“Da Bahia a Minas” is a deep and authentic sonic journey that bridges the rhythmic richness of Bahia with the melodic subtlety of Minas Gerais. The trio, formed by vocalist Fernanda Santanna, percussionist Marco Lobo, and guitarist Will Magalhães, creates an intimate and powerful musical connection that celebrates the diversity of Brazilian music with refinement and emotion.
The project thrives on an artistic dialogue between three exceptional talents, each bringing solid and complementary trajectories. Fernanda Santanna’s warm and expressive voice, rooted in Afro-Brazilian traditions, blends seamlessly with Marco Lobo’s inventive and sensitive percussion—he is one of Brazil’s great contemporary rhythm masters. Will Magalhães’ guitar adds a sophisticated harmonic language, evoking both popular and chamber music.
Their repertoire flows between original compositions, reimagined classics, and hidden gems of Brazilian songwriting, performed in a minimalist yet richly nuanced format. Each piece becomes an open conversation, where improvisation and mutual listening are essential, creating an atmosphere of intimacy and emotional depth.
This project not only pays tribute to two foundational regions in Brazil’s musical culture but also opens a new, contemporary, and borderless space, where tradition and innovation coexist naturally. Da Bahia a Minas is a tribute to Brazilian identity through subtlety, beauty, and creative freedom.
