Ivete Maria Dias de Sangalo was born in Bahia state, the throbbing heart of Brazilian culture. The city of Juazeiro was her birthplace, & Sangalo quickly imbibed the Brazilian passion for song & dance. Earlier singing & playing violin only in gymkhanas & school events, Sangalo then began performing in bars & nightclubs, eventually landing a deal with Sony Music. One of the company's projects was reforming Banda Eva, & Sangalo fit the mold perfectly as lead singer. Banda Eva's first self-titled album helped establish a strong foothold in the market upon release in 1993, enhancing the band's reputation as reliable showstoppers with the verve of their Bahian beats. Sangalo then led Banda Eva to worldwide fame with Banda Eva Ao Vivo in 1997, before leaving the band having released six commercially super-hit albums. Ivete Sangalo then built on her stellar reputation by her first solo offering Ivete Sangalo in 1999. 2000's single "Festa" became an iconic song, while "Sorte Grande" developed into an anthem for major festivals, especially sporting events. Sangalo has released a total of seven solo albums & with 12 million album sales under her belt, she remains one of the most recognizable faces in Brazilian music & its greatest ambassador.

The pulsating journey began with the Gold certified Banda Eva in 1993. Sangalo headed the lineup for Banda Eva Ao Vivo, whose sales soared up to 1.2 million, going Diamond. "Eva" & "Leva Eu" were sensational hits from the boundless energy exemplified by the album. Ivete Sangalo's debut self-titled solo album was a multi-platinum hit, before being followed by Beat Beleza & Festa, which spawned her career's biggest hit "Festa" (Party). It is a mark of her dominance when 2003's Gold-certified Clube Carnavalesco Inocentes Em Progresso, was declared her most unsuccessful album. Sangalo rebounded with MTV Ao Vivo next year, which smashed records en route to a mind-boggling 2.5 million sales (Diamond certification). "Flor do Reggae" & "Faz Tempo" mingled Afro-Caribbean beats with MPB to produce an intoxicating musical flavor while "Sorte Grande" had rip-roaring success. As Supernovas sobered up the party atmosphere as Sangalo experimented successfully with a more mature 70s-oriented sound in numbers like "Soy Loco por ti America". Sangalo has collaborated with many artists over the years, including working with Brazilian singing legend Roberto Carlos, & Brian McKnight. She also worked with the iconic Gilberto Gil for "Cue da Boca". Sangalo has been nominated 14 times for the Latin Grammy Awards.
