Mexican Summer

Grandeza, the debut album by Sao Paulo's Sessa, takes modern Brazilian music in new directions. With a deep, subtle use of rich textures and sensual lyrics in Portuguese, Sessa's songs evoke the spirit of Caetano Veloso and Tom Jobim. The minimalist treatment gives a unique touch to contemporary Brazilian music, reminiscent of Leonard Cohen with hints of tropicalia, folk, and cosmic jazz. As a long-time fixture in American and Brazilian music scenes, collaborating with Yonatan Gat and co-founding Garotas Suecas, Sessa's solo debut album is a soft focus portrait of Brazilian music that embraces modernity.

Back In Stock

São Paulo's Sessa returns with Estrela Acesa, an enchanting collection of songs adorned with elegant strings and hypnotic rhythms, honoring post-tropicalia masters like Arthur Verocai, Jorge Ben, and Milton Nascimento. If Grandeza, Sessa's acclaimed debut album, was about the drunkenness of love, Estrela Acesa is about love's hangover.
