Raphael Carvalho_divulgação

Brazilian-born Raphael Gimenes, who has been living in Denmark since 2007, writes an intimate and nostalgic type of music that explores his country’s unique rhythms. With an elegantly finger-picked guitar and a haunting voice, his songs go beyond the famous sandy beaches of Rio and travel deep into the remote mountainous regions of inland Brazil, with the phonetic beauty of his Portuguese lyrics telling stories from a distant and exotic people.
