NessaV is a Canadian-born Brazilian! Imagine grimy pop with traces of hip hop and R&B, contrasted with soft, feminine melodies, her sultry voice, and irresistible Brazilian inspired beats. Daughter of Capoeira Master, musician and Artistic Director of Aché Brasil, she learned the Brazilian art form at the young age of five. Encouraged to sing, play instruments and dance, NessaV was trained in a variety of dance styles including Samba, African, hip hop and Capoeira – a form of dance that combines acrobatics and martial arts with Afro-Brazilian rhythms. She wrote her first song at the age of ten and then pursued acting, landing roles in commercials and music videos. In no time at all, NessaV was traveling to Brazil to further her training in Capoeira and Brazilian music and began teaching Samba and Afro-Brazilian dance classes.
