Brazilian musician Laíz grew up in a conservative, religious household in Sao Paulo. Music wasn’t exactly banned at home, but it fell into two ‘safe’ categories — Phil Collins and Bach. It was only later, after leaving home at 14 years old, that Laíz was able to broaden her musical tastes to include people like Brazil’s Tim Maia and genres like hip-hop. Both inform Laíz’s debut album, “Ela Partiu.”
