Bio
Gabi Almeida is a singer/songwriter/musician/producer from Brazil.
Gabi was born in São Paulo and spent most of her live in London. Her sound is a mixture of these urban styles with breaks and beats around melodies with the English elegance and the Brazilian sensuality.
Gabi started her music career playing and singing with bands and soon was touring with names such as Tricky (performing in the Jools Holland Show, The American MTV fashion awards, festivals and concerts in the U.S.A, Europe and Israel), Five (European MTV Awards), Anne Clark (European Tour and Special featuring on one of Anne Clarks Single Wallies and Sleeper in Metropolis), The Lighthouse Family, Desree, Cathy Dennis (European tours and TVs including Top Of The Pops), Mc Almont (British tour supporting Cindy Lauper, Royal Albert Hall, GLR Radio Live Session). She has also sung on the Porn Kings European single Cmon Amour.
Gabi has lived in Philadelphia and Spain too, where she has produced and performed various DJ sets of Brazilian House.
All this experiences inspired her to produce her first solo work entitled Paint My Colours/ Pinte Minhas Cores. The recordings of her debut started independently in England and later with the co-producer Richard Robson (Amy Winehouse/ Tiesto/ Shakira/ Richard Ashcroft). Back in Brazil in 2006 she spent one year travelling with an acoustic guitar writing more songs that were later recorded and produced in Florianópolis, South of Brazil, with special featuring from guest rapper K-Chaça and other Brazilian musicians. Her album has already had good reviews by MTV, The Rolling Stone Magazine, Vogue and many local newspapers and websites.
Till the Moment You Sleep, from the album Paint My Colours/ Pinte Minha Cores, was chosen for the soundtrack of the Latin American HBO original production series Alice.
Gabi has been promoting her album and touring in Brazil since late 2007, playing at Festivals such as Power To The Peaceful, and venues like The El Divino Club, Studio SP, Na Mata, The Chakras lounge amongst others. Based in London and São Paulo, she is looking forward to take her music back to Europe with her band or her one-woman show full of breaks and beats, backed up by her programmed tracks and textures, her keyboard, her guitar, and her melodic and captivating voice.
