Tetel Di Babuya (teteldibabuya.com) is a Jazz-influenced Brazilian singer-songwriter and violinist. She performs and composes in both English and Portuguese, creating a compelling sound that blends (and stirs) Jazz, Blues, Bossa Nova and Standards, old and new.

As an accomplished professional violinist, Tetel Di Babuya has played with some of the most renowned orchestras in Brazil, and in her solo career, audiences are drawn to her passionate and entertaining live performances. Her songwriting is deeply personal, melodically original, and lyrically surprising, displaying a subtle and ironic sense of humor.

Her debut album, Meet Tetel, introduces listeners to Tetel’s musical inventiveness and compelling storytelling. Her unique style reflects the influence of Amy Winehouse and Ella Fitzgerald, while tapping into an emotional evocativeness reminiscent of Nina Simone, Dinah Washington and Billie Holiday, and the sensitivity of Melody Gardot, Madeleine Peyroux, and Norah Jones. ​ facebook.com/teteldibabuya — instagram.com/teteldibabuya — tiktok.com/teteldibabuya
