Completely engulfing and enthralling. The minutes seem to melt away while listening. Candidly moving debut album. – R2 magazine
Born on the tiny Island of Guernsey to a Portuguese family, Singer-Songwriter Nessi Gomes channels influences from both sides of her ethnicity, blending the essence of the traditional, emotional and ‘larger than life’ Fado folk music with British progressive modern inspiration.
Her acclaimed debut album Diamonds & Demons was released in October 2016 and received lots of media attention and radio support in Europe and the UK.
It reveals a genuine and sincere search for light, depth, hope and truth, an artistic search for love and trust. It is a series of intricately detailed, compellingly atmospheric and lushly textured avant-garde ballads. Here is a musician whose work indirectly refers to her pain. It is uniquely her own, with Portuguese accents and premonitions of hope and fear.
Since Nessi Gomes played in 30 countries including major festivals and stages. Parallel she created the ever-growing Vocal Odyssey workshops and retreats that encourage participants to meet with the spirit of their voice. Thousands have already experienced the process under her guidance and you will experience it during the meeting at the Festival Wibracje.
