ABOUT
ALYSSON

Born in Brazil, Alysson fuses the rhythms of the Afro-diaspora

from Minas Gerais State with contemporary Brazilian Music

(MPB). With his distinctive guitar playing and vocal style, his lyrics

explore themes of

ancestry,

self-knowledge,

faith, and the non-linearity of time -

central threads that weave through his narratives.

EP IROKO

Orixa who is the representation of time, Iroko was the first tree planted and through which the other Orixas descended to Earth

In a selection of songs whose non-linearity of time stitches together the narratives, the EP also gets its name because it symbolizes Alysson's territory and his rich musical identity, crossed by his artistic experiences with Brazilian music , black resistance musical theater and the Minas Gerais drum .
