ABOUT
DeFAFON.
DAYSE FAGAN FONSECA
Dayse has earned her living from music since the age of ten. Three years later she was on national Brazilian television, on Rede Globo’s “Canta Minas”. Thirty-four years later, that instinct is what a booking actually buys.
She sings and plays piano, keyboards and acoustic guitar, DJs and conducts — solo or with a band, in rooms from conference halls to cruise decks. In 2015 she music-directed a theater-and-music production and coached a cast of early childhood education teachers to perform.
Bandleader & technical direction
The part most producers have to chase is already covered — nothing is improvised on the day.
Custom arrangements
Arrangements written for a very eclectic repertoire and personalised for the room.
Rehearsal preparation
Lyrics and chords prepared for every player, so rehearsals run faster and tighter.
Run of show
The musical part of rehearsals coordinated and the sequence of songs planned.
Stage map & sound
Stage map drawn and sound equipment assembled before the doors open.
On stage, her mission is simple: bring positive energy, interact with the audience, and move people.
