Luísa Sonza grew up in Tuparendi, a small town in Rio Grande do Sul, and was singing at weddings and parties with a local band while still a kid. She built her name on YouTube covers, which earned her the nickname "Queen of Covers", and Universal Music signed her in 2017, putting out her debut single "Good Vibes" straight away.
Her first album, Pandora (2019), made her one of Brazil's biggest pop names, and Doce 22 (2021) brought hits like "Café da Manhã" with Ludmilla. Escândalo Íntimo (2023), home to "Chico", broke the Brazilian record for most-streamed album on its release day. In 2026 she went somewhere unexpected: Bossa Sempre Nova, a bossa nova record made with Roberto Menescal and Toquinho, followed by Brutal Paraíso.
