Paty Fernandes is a Brazilian singer, songwriter, and Latin Grammy®-nominated vocalist. From an early age, she knew music was her calling—by the time she was 8, she was certain her life would be dedicated to singing. At 16, she entered college for music and, just four years later, graduated with a degree in popular singing.

​

At 18, Paty won an international singing competition that brought her to New York, where she recorded a single at Platinum Studio NY, produced by Wyclef Jean and co-produced by Fergie (Black Eyed Peas). Back in Brazil, her career quickly expanded: she joined major bands, appeared on prestigious stages, and, for six years, performed weekly with the Raul Gil show band on SBT, sharing the stage with some of the biggest national and international artists.

​

She went on to record a DVD with singer-songwriter Maurício Manieri, alongside Jon Secada, and later participated in the album O Bar Me Chama by the iconic Brazilian rock band Velhas Virgens, which received a Latin Grammy® nomination for Best Rock Album.

​

Her solo path began in 2019 with the release of the single Último Dia. In 2021, she launched the album Da Nossa Terrawith the project Duet Paty & Leo, alongside her husband, Leo Testoni. Together, they toured Europe and South America, captivating audiences and receiving invitations to prestigious festivals and collaborations.

​

In 2023, Paty and Leo recorded with Grammy® Award-winning drummer Danny Gottlieb (The Pat Metheny Group, Mahavishnu Orchestra) and later that year performed in Paris at Charisma Eglise Chrétienne, where they delivered a spectacular show with a 40-piece choir and band for 5,000 people, broadcast live worldwide.

​

In July 2024, the duo toured Italy, performing at celebrated festivals such as the Piazza Medaglia d’Oro Biagini Jazz Festival. And in 2025, Paty performed with Grammy®-nominated conductor and pianist Otmaro Ruiz, as well as Grammy®-nominated singer Catina DeLuna, in the project Lado B Brazilian Project 2.

​

Devoted to music, Paty is constantly evolving—always studying, composing, and embracing new artistic challenges.
