NESSAV - SINGER | SONGWRITER | CAPOEIRISTA
NessaV - a Canadian-born Brazilian that grew up performing with Aché Brasil (Brazilian music and dance group) and is now branching out with her own music.
Strong, sexy, gorgeous: NessaV is sugar and spice and everything nice with an urban, street edge. Imagine grimy pop with traces of hip hop and R&B, contrasted with soft, feminine melodies. Her sultry voice, irresistible Afro-Brazilian inspired beats, and jaw-dropping Capoeira skills have captivated audiences all over North America!
Inspired to write and perform her own music, NessaV did just that and won first place in a songwriting contest - Music Against Racism Project 2008 - sponsored by Music BC. Writing and performing her own music has allowed NessaV to explore other genres and create a sound that is her own.
On June 3rd, 2010, NessaV released her début album - "Aché" as described by The Georgia Straight, "The aptly titled Aché is a slick showcase for NessaV’s radio-ready voice, setting it against hip-hop beats, R&B grooves, and a hint of samba." The word "aché" comes from the Yoruba language adopted by the Brazilian culture meaning “everything positive in the universe”.
