Described as the first contemporary Brazilian album that measures up to the Brazilian classics of the past, “Equilibria” is the debut recording from hotly-tipped singer-songwriter Sabrina Malheiros. Born in Rio 26 years ago, Sabrina presents a sublime mix of bossas and sambas with touches of R&B and electronica. “Equilibria” combines timeless Brazilian songwriting with contemporary beats to produce this year’s hottest Brazilian debut.

Despite her youth, Sabrina’s musical experience is vast. This comes as no surprise given her musical lineage. Sabrina is the daughter of Alex Malheiros, bassist from legendary Brazilian band Azymuth. Her grandfather played with Sergio Mendez and was the first Brazilian to manufacture an electric bass, whilst her uncle was the premier violin craftsman in Brazil. Sabrina is in no doubt of their influence: “I grew up listening to Azymuth; their music is fixed in my life. My master is João Gilberto, in fact my favourite childhood toy was a João LP that I took with me everywhere!”

At the age of 6, Sabrina was enrolled in Rio’s premier music school and by 12, she had made her recording debut singing lead vocals on the title track of Azymuth’s 1991 album, “Curumim.” Such was its success that opportunities to record backing vocals for various Brazilian artists came flooding in.
