Gabriel Fidelis

Gabriel Fidelis (Gabriel dos Santos Fidelis, born on May 30, 2000, in Carapicuíba, São Paulo) is a Brazilian singer-songwriter associated with arrocha and seresta. He moved at age 12 to Maracás in Bahia, where he began singing the style that later anchored his catalog, shaped by family exposure to forró bands and church singing and long truck trips with his grandparents that kept him glued to the radio. He began releasing music in the early 2020s, starting with singles such as “Chega e Senta” (2021), then pushed into longer formats with Seresta Do Fidelis (2023). In 2024, he followed with Tbt do Fidelis 1.0 (2024), a set that leaned into nostalgic repertoire choices and helped set up a busier run the next year. In 2025, he expanded his output with the album Pra Tomar Cana Com Força and turned his live-party persona into titled projects with Fidelis na Budega. That same year, “Morena do Carai” arrived first as a solo single and then as a second version credited with Natanzinho Lima, which became his best-known title. He closed 2025 with the 11-track album Bota pra Tocar.
