One of most important composer and singer from Bahia-Brazil, with a really unique personal style, she mixes Bossa Nova and Brazilian Rhythms with Blues, Jazz, Rock and R&B, as well as doses of Latin music.
With her sensual, deep voice, and her versatility as a singer with her own characteristic tone and lyrics ranging from whisper to wild chords has made Sylvia Patricia the first Bahian singer to receive the Sharp Prize revelation in 1990, one important prize in Brazil.

Sylvia Patricia feels comfortable within any musical style being both an academic musician and a popular singer. She graduated in music with a major in singing from the Faculdade Paulista de Arte and also studied composing and conducting, classical guitar, piano and even classical Indian music. Her unique sense of sound also comes from her family background, which has both a musical and literary tradition. On her father’s side she belongs to a famous musical family from Pernambuco.
Born in Salvador, with indigenous blood from an ancestral on her skin, she uses the music to talk of love and life’s ups and downs in the metropolis, of sprawling cities that don’t ever stop growing but all from an upbeat point of female view. She composes with character, quite at home in the world of so-called Brazilian New Music. Her talent has been recognised by other great Brazilian singers such as Caetano Veloso, for example, who did the duet Cantar with her on her second CD. As well she shows her talent in reinterpretations/remakes of some sacred sambas.
