Biography

Fernanda Brum Costa da Cruz is a renowned Brazilian singer, songwriter, pastor, and producer, widely recognized as one of the leading names in contemporary Christian music in the country. Born in São João de Meriti, Rio de Janeiro, she began her artistic career in the 1990s, initially standing out after opening a show for veteran singer Shirley Carvalhaes. Throughout her career, Fernanda has built a remarkable discography that includes hits such as "Meu Bem Maior", "Quebrantado Coração", and "Apenas um Toque", cementing her status as one of the top-selling artists in the national gospel segment.

The artist has also achieved significant international projection, having been nominated several times for the Latin Grammy in the Best Portuguese Language Christian Album category and winning the award for her works "Da Eternidade" and "Som da Minha Vida". In addition to her solid solo career, Fernanda has collaborated with various musicians and carried out joint projects with prominent names in evangelical music, such as singer Eyshila. In 2020, after a quarter of a century associated with the MK Music label, the performer signed a contract with Sony Music Gospel, renewing her sound and expanding her reach on digital platforms.

Alongside her intense musical activity, Fernanda serves as a pastor alongside her husband, producer and keyboardist Emerson Pinheiro, with whom she founded and leads the Profetizando às Nações Church in Rio de Janeiro. Her literary work, the audiovisual recordings of her ministrations, and her engagement in social causes complete the profile of one of the most influential figures in contemporary Brazilian Christian culture.
