From Brazil to the World: Ana Castela’s Grammy Journey

When Ana Castela accepted her Grammy for Best Sertaneja Music Album in Portuguese on November 14, 2025, she represented more than just her own success—she represented the rise of Brazilian sertanejo music on the global stage. Her live album, Boiadeira Internacional (Ao Vivo), is a remarkable blend of traditional Brazilian sounds and contemporary innovation, a perfect reflection of her journey from her rural roots to international acclaim.

The album, recorded in the culturally vibrant tri-border region of Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina, captures the heart of sertanejo music. Ana’s voice carries the soul of rural Brazil, but her modern production style adds a fresh, global twist. It’s this fusion of old and new that has made her music so relatable and exciting for fans both in Brazil and beyond.

Ana’s impact extends far beyond the music itself. Her recent sold-out tour in Portugal is a testament to her ability to connect with audiences around the world. Thousands of fans packed arenas to experience her dynamic performances, proving that her songs—centered on themes of love, family, and resilience—resonate universally.

Her online presence is equally impressive. With 16 million monthly Spotify listeners and billions of YouTube views, Ana has harnessed the power of digital platforms to amplify her reach. This Grammy win has only solidified her position as a leader in the global music industry.

Everton Albertoni, her producer at AgroPlay Music, describes Ana’s journey as nothing short of revolutionary. “Ana Castela has redefined the boundaries of sertanejo music,” he said. “She’s shown the world what Brazilian music is capable of, and we’re only getting started.”

For Ana, the Grammy is not just an accolade—it’s a platform for her to continue sharing the beauty of sertanejo music with the world. With her passion, talent, and vision, Ana Castela is charting a path that will inspire future generations of artists.
