Evan Craft Featured On Gabriel Guedes’ “Tudo Vai Ficar Bem (Be Alright)”
One month after releasing his EP O Amor Que Encontrei — which has already surpassed 1 million streams on Spotify and over 1 million views on YouTube — Brazilian singer Gabriel Guedes presents a bonus track from the project, marking a phase of experimentation in his career with modern sounds such as pop, funk, R&B, and reggaeton.
The new song, Tudo Vai Ficar Bem, is the first official Portuguese version of Be Alright by American singer Evan Craft. The connection between the two artists began in 2021 during the Covid-19 pandemic, when Guedes posted an Instagram Story singing the song.
“I recorded a story — back then it was still just 15 seconds — and Evan replied asking if I spoke English or Spanish, saying we needed to release this song in Portuguese. It was amazing to share that idea and dream about recording a version for the Brazilian audience. We reconnected later through our labels — Capitol Records, which represents Evan, and Onimusic, which represents me here in Brazil.
They already had a great relationship, and from there came the idea of including this song in my new album. It took four years, but the right time has finally come. I truly believe it happened in God’s timing and that everything is unfolding according to His will,” explains Guedes.
According to Gabriel, the production combines elements from both countries. Evan Craft shared the original stems — including guitars, pads, and effects — while Guedes, alongside producer Abee (who also worked on O Amor Que Encontrei), added drums, bass, and other layers in Brazil.
“I talked to Abee about the sound I had in mind and gave him my references to achieve what we envisioned. I recorded the vocals with Evan in Nashville at Capitol Records Studios this July. That was the first time we met in person. We recorded the vocals and also filmed the music video, which has a very intimate and introspective vibe. My hope is that this song brings peace and refreshment to those who are anxious and in need of calm — that they may encounter the love of Jesus through this music,” says Gabriel.
Born in California, Evan Craft has been involved with music since the age of 12. With 15 albums in English and Spanish and numerous singles, his hit Be Alright was released in 2021 on the album Desesperado, reaching No. 1 on the charts after climbing into the Top 20 in just three weeks. The song featured Danny Gokey and Redimi2, and later gained remix versions with KB and Sam Rivera, as well as a Spanish version with Steven Malcolm.

“Be Alright was originally written in Spanish and became an anthem for people facing chaos and loneliness during Covid. We wrote it for those battling anxiety and depression — people who might have felt unseen by God in their pain. But we know that even in the reality of suffering here on Earth, God is making all things new. Jesus said He is preparing a place where there will be no more pain or tears, and that everything will be alright. We never imagined the song would reach so many, but it’s been amazing to hear how people have found comfort and connection with the Holy Spirit through it,” shares Evan.
Evan says he had long wanted to collaborate with Gabriel.
“I’d wanted to work with Gabriel for a while, but the opportunity was delayed because of the pandemic. Gabriel brought so much life to the song, and I’m so grateful he’s bringing it to Brazil and other Portuguese-speaking communities. His music, influence, and life are an example of faithfulness, and it’s a privilege to work with him. I’m really excited to see the response in Brazil and believe this song will bring comfort in the midst of the chaos and uncertainty we all face as human beings. I’d love to release more songs in Portuguese — I truly admire the musicians, singers, and songwriters there. I think they’re among the best in the world. I’d definitely perform in Brazil if I were invited,” says Craft.
