Singer Amanda Mendonça re-releases “Casa de Memórias”, highlighting her artistic search for authenticity, ancestry, and Brazilian identity.
Since childhood, Amanda Mendonça has found music to be a refuge. Her father’s passion for records and CDs inspired her early fascination with melodies and lyrics that carry emotion and memory. She began in theater, fell in love with Brazilian musicals, and discovered in art a safe place to express herself fully.
Poetry, emotion and identity
In 2015, Amanda began studying singing and music theory — a journey that continues to this day. Writing has always been part of her process, and many of her texts were born with melody. From this natural fusion came “Casa de Memórias”, a song now being re-released on all digital platforms.
“Words have always come to me as a form of relief, a way to tell stories where each word has its purpose. Casa de Memórias is about being a home for others and not receiving the same affection back — yet realizing that memories remain within us, in our bodies and experiences,” explains Amanda.
For the artist, art is a form of shelter — a space for freedom and authenticity. “Singing and writing are vital to me. If one person feels touched by my music, my mission is fulfilled,” she says. Her work reflects a deep connection to Brazilian heritage and ancestral roots, central to her creative journey.
“Xodó em Flor”: a show of affection and poetry
Alongside the re-release of “Casa de Memórias”, Amanda presents “Xodó em Flor”, a musical performance that blends poetry, Brazilian popular music, and northeastern rhythms. The repertoire includes classics such as Lamento Sertanejo and O Mundo é um Moinho, as well as originals like Na Roda and Yo Ya No Quiero Más — a heartfelt celebration of love, memory, and the beauty of human connection.
