Biography
Gio Bianco was born into a musical family and began singing at the age of nine. Her mother, Eliane Bianco, is a pianist, and her brother is a composer.[3][2]
Her professional career began in 2015, and by 2018 she started promoting her original work.[3] She gained national recognition as a judge on the musical reality show Canta Comigo, a collaboration between Netflix and Record TV, hosted by Rodrigo Faro.[3][2]
With growing visibility, Gio Bianco has steadily increased her social media following, reaching over 100,000 followers.[3] In 2020, she began releasing original music under Midas Music, the label founded by Rick Bonadio.[1][2] She was nominated in the "Breakout Artist" category at the BreakTudo Awards, which honors achievements in music, internet, and television.[2]
In 2023, her reinterpretations of Brazilian hits gained significant airplay on MPB-focused radio stations. Her cover of Ivete Sangalo’s "Não Precisa Mudar" topped the MPB charts from August 2023, according to Crowley Broadcast Analysis Brazil.[4] Other notable covers include "Só Tinha de Ser com Você" by Tom Jobim and "Sozinho" by Peninha.[3]
Previously, Gio Bianco had already made waves with a duet alongside André Mota on "Ainda Lembro" by Marisa Monte, which held the top spot on MPB radio for five consecutive months.[5]
Later in 2023, she released the album Covers, featuring renditions of songs by Rita Lee, Cyndi Lauper, and others.[5] In 2024, she plans to release a fully original album, moving away from covers and reinterpretations. For this project, she is collaborating with producer Silvera, known for his work with Ed Motta and Racionais MC's.[5]
