About the artist

Zé Ibarra is a central figure in the new wave of Brazilian music. He first became known as the frontman of the band D?nica, before making a strong mark as a solo artist with his debut album “Marquês”. Zé Ibarra comes to Cosmopolite with “AFIM” – his second solo album and a clearly new chapter in his career.

On “AFIM”, Zé Ibarra moves away from the intimate, acoustic guitar-based expression and into a more complex and physical sonic landscape. Here, MPB, jazz, pop and progressive elements meet in music that is more direct, more visual and more instinctive. The album contains both his own compositions and reinterpretations of Brazilian songwriters, and appears as an encounter between Ibarra’s different musical sides – from the quiet and personal to the dense and collectively oriented.
