Singer-songwriter Mariana Valadão was steeped in Christian music from a young age. She cut her teeth with massive worship band Diante do Trono—founded by her sister Ana Paula Valadão—before channelling her shimmering vocals and fervent emotion into personal CCM gems like those on 2009’s De Todo Meu Coração. More recently, Em Casa—recorded during lockdown in 2020—is populated with emotive piano melodies and bright synthesised sounds. But the stripped-back set-up takes nothing away from Valadão's honest, full-bodied performance, sealing more than a decade of solo success for the artist.
