WILL SANTT
Will Santt is a Brazilian singer, guitarist, songwriter, and poet, born in São Paulo in 2003. Considered one of the most promising voices of the new generation of Bossa Nova, he began his musical journey in childhood as a self-taught musician and has since developed a sound that blends tradition with a contemporary sensibility.
Strongly influenced by masters such as João Gilberto, Tom Jobim, Caetano Veloso, Djavan, and Baden Powell, Will has crafted a distinctive style marked by a soft voice, sophisticated harmonies, expressive silence, and percussive guitar playing. His lyrics explore themes such as love, time, existence, and contemplation, always with poetic sensitivity.
Since 2023, his international career has been gaining recognition through tours across Europe, with performances in Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, the United Kingdom, Poland, and Bulgaria. In 2025, he released Cores do Meu Coração, an album that explores the textures of the soul and reaffirms his place in the contemporary Bossa Nova landscape.
With over 100 original songs and appearances at prestigious festivals such as the World Economic Forum (Switzerland), Recoletos Jazz (Spain), Blue Note (Poland), Jazz Café (London), and Nocera Jazz Festival (Italy), Will Santt continues to captivate audiences with his intimate, refined, and universal artistry.
