Biography

Uana Mahin Passos Braga, artistically known as Uana, was born in Camaragibe, Pernambuco, on April 13, 1994. A singer, songwriter, instrumentalist, and businesswoman, she stands out in the contemporary music scene for blending rhythms and the modern culture of Recife in her productions. Her rise caught the attention of critics and the public, cementing her name in the new generation of Brazilian music.

In 2023, her career gained national projection when she was highlighted by Forbes Brasil magazine among the ten emerging female names in national music. In the same period, she won the Billboard Brasil WME Awards in the Revelation Artist category and received an international nomination in the Best Voice category at the Los Angeles Video Music Awards for the music video of the track "Vidro Fumê". The following year, she joined the Alerta Experimente project by the Multishow and Bis channels, aimed at boosting prominent independent talents across the country.

In late 2024, Uana released her eagerly awaited debut album, entitled "Megalomania", which featured collaborations with artists such as Rachel Reis and Mago de Tarso. The project reinforced her strong connection with the cultural identity of Pernambuco, earning her, in December 2024, a certificate of honor of merit granted by the City Council of Recife for her significant contribution to local culture.
