Apuama

Matu Miranda has grown up in constant movement. Changing homes, cities, schools and horizons has shaped his worldview and fuelled a body of work informed by displacement, transformation and belonging.

With Apuama, his second album, the Brazilian singer, songwriter and guitarist delivers his most personal work to date: songs exploring how we each construct a sense of home through the encounters, departures and returns that mark our lives.

Driven by sensitive songwriting and organic production, Apuama moves through contemporary MPB, tropical folk, popular poetry and Brazilian acoustic influences. Highlights include É Bom Voltar, O Que Será de Nós and the title track, with collaborations from Josyara on Céu Azulzin and Chico Chico on Estética da Fome. Produced by Leo Marques, it has a warm, vibrant sound.
