Helena Casella: R&B, jazz and Brazilian influences

Helena Casella is a Belgian-Brazilian singer and composer who grew up in a musical family. In her music, she combines R&B, neo-soul, hip-hop, modern jazz, and Brazilian rhythms. Her voice is soft yet poignant: she sings about personal experiences that many people can relate to.

Her debut album

In early 2025, Casella released her debut album on the Belgian label WERF Records. About her album, she says in the magazine HUMO : 'It is a true listening album, one that will only fully reveal itself if you make time for it and listen to it actively and attentively.'

Musicians on stage

Casella is not alone on stage. She is accompanied by Agus Fulka on guitar, Lea Dooms on bass, and Max Sergeant on drums.
