PABLLO VITTAR & ANITTA SOAR IN “BALINHA DE CORAÇÃO”; NEW ALBUM OUT NOW
Pabllo Vittar shares more on Noitada: “This album has a very special energy, with the mood of “Balinha de Coração.” With each album I release, I try to tell a story. For example, in my fourth and last album, Batidão Tropical, I embraced nostalgia and reflected on my childhood, where I was able to explore a more sunny daytime environment and reference Brazilian Forró. Now, with Noitada, I’m exploring the elements of the night, where we can be whoever and whatever we want.”
