What Davi Sacer doesn’t know about rousing Brazilian gospel balladry isn’t worth knowing. Born in Rio, the singer-songwriter has been immersed in music since fronting his elder brother’s band aged eight, developing into one of the nation’s most spine-tingling deliverers of rich vocal melodies and emotive piano chills. You only need to listen to the rapturous applause that greets powerful live renditions of tracks like “Olha Pra Mim” (one of many collaborations with his wife Veronica Sacer) and “Restitui” to grasp the extent to which he’s beloved—and rightly so.
