Tim Bernardes - Mil Coisas Invisíveis (Black Vinyl)
Tim Bernardes, a Latin Grammy nominated singer, songwriter, musician, composer,
and producer from São Paulo, Brazil, has just announced the release of his forthcoming album Mil Coisas Invisíveis on Psychic Hotline.
Bernardes has captivated global audiences with his delicate balance between sounds seeped in Brazilian tradition and contemporary
indie and folk that is deeply warm, intimate, emotionally resonant and healing. He’s collaborated with the likes of Fleet Foxes, Tom Zé,
David Byrne, Gal Costa, Devendra Banhart, Shintaro Sakamoto, and more. Mil Coisas Invisíveis is his second solo album, following his
2017 debut Recomeçar. The album was written primarily while touring with his acclaimed tropicalia-indie group O Terno, and heading
into 2020, which is when he decided to step back from touring and focus on new songs. What emerged was an album that is generous
and intimate- a series of meditations on metaphysical transformation in the face of grave uncertainty. The first single, ‘Nascer Vivier
Morrer’ opens the album, tracing the journey of life from birth to death. One of the last songs written for the album, Tim feels that it
connects the rest of the songs on the album- ‘I understand how the album looked from the outside and understand how it accentuated
this conscious shift in me.’ The song says a lot in a few words, meditating on the magical experience of existence and presence. Joyful
and introspective, the song is carried by simple instrumentation and layered vocals that render the song remarkably intimate. "This is a
very short song that when I wrote I felt it fit as kind of an opening to the album. The songs in the album have some different vibes
between them but I feel that this one connects them in a very synthetic way. Trying to say a lot with few words. About 'just being', about
how magical the existence of existence is. About the presence of presence, and presence of absence in life. Like the song says, 'in the
rare infinite moment, to live.” Says Tim about ‘Nascer Vivier Morrer’ In support of his forthcoming album, Tim Bernardes will be heading
out on a U.S. tour this Summer with Fleet Foxes. "I hope to one day be a tenth as good at singing and making songs as Tim Bernardes
is." Robin Pecknold, Fleet Foxes // "A marvel of tuning, dynamics control, refinement, instrumental execution and freedom in the
elegance of using the stage" Caetano Veloso // "Tim, at 25, already seems to define his place as the great composer of his generation
