Karen Dió releases new song ‘Bexy’

KAREN DIÓ has released a new single!

The Brazilian punk firebrand returns with her explosive new single Bexy, which follows on from her previous single, I Hope You Know, which was released in November last year. The new single started as an off‑the‑cuff freestyle during a Patreon livestream.

Speaking about the origins of the song, Karen shares, “a few years ago, me and my husband had a Patreon page. We used to share about our lives and hang with our Patrons in live video calls quite often. In one of these live calls, we decided to grab the guitar and improvise a song live, to everyone that joined the call. Bex, one of our OG beloved supporters joined the live call, so we immediately began writing Bex a song. Matt started to play the chord progression that you hear in the final song and I also started to sing basically the final version of the vocals, the words beginning to form as we messed around. We wrote the song right there, live, on the call. Instead of singing Bex, I sang Bexy, a sort linguistic change that happens as my primary language is Brazilian Portuguese. In Portuguese you add an “ee” sound to every word that finishes with consonant. haha. So for instance ‘Facebook’ becomes ‘Faceybooky’, ‘Hot Dog’ turns into ‘Hotchy Doggy’… So Bex ended up turning into Bexy. And that was it, the song was almost completed right there on the call.’”
