Ana Frango Elétrico is the most effervescent and innovative voice to surge up from Brazil’s new wave. Already with two critically acclaimed albums and a swathe of award-winning production turns under their belt, Frango Elétrico’s third album presents their most confident and accomplished work to date. Gesturing to a tradition of Brazilian boogie music, but bouncing with modern pop ebullience, the album sees the Rio artist evolve from a captivating upstart into a surefooted scene leader in full stride.
Maria Cau Levy’s design for the graphic identity and packaging for the album Me Chama De Gato Que Eu Sou Sua / Call Me They That I’m Yours aims to translate the musician Ana Frango Elétrico’s experimentations on sound understandings and feelings about queer love. The visual choices for typography, photographs, and illustrations dialogues with the album’s diverse range of references from the 70s and 80s with a contemporary take, resulting in a vibrant and timeless feel.
