Biography

Born in Macapá, the daughter of singer Oneide Bastos, she began her professional music career at 18, when she was chosen as the lead vocalist of the group Banda Brinds, with whom she remained for five years. Starting from the 1990s, she embarked on a solo career, first performing locally, and later gaining national recognition through participation in several festivals.[1]

With the album Zulusa, released in 2013, Bastos won the awards for Best Folk Album and Best Folk Performer in the 25th edition of the Prêmio da Música Brasileira.[1] With her following album, Batom Bacaba, she again received nominations in the Best Album and Best Singer categories at the Prêmio da Música Brasileira, and was also nominated for a Latin Grammy for Best Portuguese Language Roots Album.[2][3]

Her style is characterized from references to the musical tradition of her homeland, the Amapá region, and in particular to its African and indigenous ancestries.[1][4]
