Биография

Acrobatic, sensual, both angelic and profane” is how The Guardian described the voice of brazilian-born, canadian singer-songwriter Bruno Capinan (Broo-noh Cap-ee-nan, pronouns: they/them). The Toronto based artist has released five albums in their decade long career, and performed to audiences in Canada, Japan, Brazil, Argentina and the United States; fusing bossa-nova inspired music and an extravagant performance. 
 A fierce performer, Bruno’s approach to music making is rooted in the Brazilian tropicalia influence, which is to embrace all the vast possibilities of sound. Their music blends traditional Brazilian sounds, also known as MPB, with other global influences, and features Portuguese lyrics that are both personal and sensitive. 
 They gained international recognition with the album “Divina Graça” (2016), including reviews in French newspaper Libération, as well as Brazil’s largest publications O Globo, Folha de São Paulo, and Rolling Stone Brazil. Bruno has collaborated with artists around the globe, including Japanese composer Jun Miyake. 
 Most recently, the artist released “Leão Alado Sem Juba”, recorded remotely between Canada, France, Portugal and Brazil, receiving a second nomination to the prestigious APCA (São Paulo Association of Art Critics). In June of 2022, they were scheduled to showcase at Atlantic Music Expo in Cape Verde.
