Musings for the laziest day of the week

7 September 2025

Artist: NELSON SOBRAL
Who: Singer-songwriter-guitarist hailing from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, equally inspired
by the vast, wide open spaces of the country he calls home and the labyrinthine maze of the city in which he resides. Sobral’s music is as much Americana and blues as it is soul and rock’n’roll, perfectly balanced with the energy and sound of each of his respective influences

Track: BUILT TO LAST

Sobral: ““I wrote “Built To Last” thinking about the rare connections that stand
the test of time. It came together quickly, almost like it was waiting for me to catch
up. I recorded it myself, and when Mattie mixed and produced it—with Tay’s harmonies
lifting everything—it felt like the exact way it was meant to sound: warm, real, and
lived-in.

“Built To Last” is not only a statement about the strength of undying love but
also how I feel about me and my approach to playing & creating music and
presenting it to the world.”

TUTV: Dim the lights, sit down, fix yourself your fav drink, relax and listen
to this endearing reverie, beautifully orchestrated, fueled with a funky bass
riff and Sobral‘s midnight hour voice. A modern day Motown soul vibe to
cherish.
