Inês Loubet is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who writes Brazilian-influenced, danceable songs that seamlessly blend improvisation and jazz harmony with captivating melodies and powerful lyrics. Loubet’s musical journey has been marked by notable performances at prestigious venues and festivals. From gracing the stage at the BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall to a sold-out Tropicalia show at The Jazz Café, supporting Brazilian legend Gilberto Gil at the O2 Shepherds Bush, and sharing the spotlight with João Bosco & Hamilton de Holanda at The Union Chapel in 2018, Loubet’s talent has garnered widespread recognition.

Loubet’s projects have received acclaim from influential figures such as Gilles Peterson and Mr Bongo, earning her several UK and international tours and radio appearances on platforms like Jazz Fm, NTS, Soho Radio, and BBC Radio 3. In 2022, Loubet received the Drake Yolanda Award, and her dedication to her craft has been further supported by Arts Council funding for her 12-date UK SENGA Tour and Help Musicians UK. Loubet’s creative journey culminates in her debut album, “SENGA,” which was released in May 2024 under the Alberts Favourites South-London label.
