The new generation of women in Brazilian rock and metal continues to surprise. After showcasing the talent of Ciça Moreira , the program Canta Comigo Teen reveals among the finalists of the fourth edition the powerful voice of Iara Almeida, who recently released the single "Everyday".
At just 15 years old, Iara Almeida already draws attention for her dark look, with black clothes and heavy makeup, but nothing stands out more than her powerful and well-tuned voice. Last Sunday, the 16th, Iara qualified for the final of the talent show by singing two rock classics: "Separate Ways" by Journey , and "Sweet Child O' Mine" by Guns N' Roses , captivating most of the judges with her performances.
Even before participating in the program, Iara had already established a strong online presence, garnering interactions and shares from various bands and artists she admires, such as Echo & The Bunnymen, Twisted Sister, Ann Wilson (Heart), Kiko Loureiro, and Myrath .
This young artist is certainly another name to watch on in the national scene, as she already shows aptitude for more than just covers. Produced by Bruno Luiz and featuring Luigi Paraventi on drums, "Everyday" is only Iara Almeida's second composition, but it showcases personality and addresses an important theme.
With autobiographical content, the song was written during a delicate moment in her life, when she found herself surrounded by "toxic friendships and insecure people who project their frustrations" onto everyone around them. "This song is very important to me because everything I couldn't say to the person who hurt me so much, I put into words in this song," she said.
