Dino Brandão

Guest 25/26

Dino  Brandão is a Swiss‑Angolan singer, songwriter, producer and performer who fuses pop, folk, experimental and electronic sound worlds. Hybridity, playfulness and imperfection drive his practice. On stage, he treats body, voice and presence as instruments, blurring the line between musician and performer. Concerts shift from intimate acoustic moments to expansive, theatrical soundscapes. He self‑produced the solo album Self‑Inclusion (2024) and has toured internationally. In 2020 he released Ich liebe dich with Sophie Hunger and Faber under the name Brandão Faber Hunger. Dino describes his identity as “simultaneous” – Luanda and Brugg, flight and fall, the good knee and the broken one – turning personal anomalies into a bittersweet musical homage. Even when he tackles serious, layered subjects, his songs remain accessible; they showcase his joy for musical experimentation, packaging emotions in a straightforward, unadorned style that mirrors the way he talks about them and processes the world around him.
