Alice Caymmi comes from a family as musically gifted as she is—her grandfather is Dorival Caymmi, one of the founders of Brazil's bossa nova movement, and her father is the celebrated singer and composer Danilo Caymmi. This bloodline of musical talent has played a significant role in her music, with her debut album "Alice Caymmi" an emotional, samba- and baião-infused tribute to her grandfather. "Alice", released in 2018, drops her last name as she turns to a new genre, an avant-garde combination of experimental electro-pop with modern R&B influences.
