Alice Caymmi (born Alice Malaguti Caymmi on March 17 1990) is a Brazilian singer and composer. She is the granddaughter of Dorival Caymmi, daughter of Danilo and Simone Caymmi and niece of Nana and Dori Caymmi.

Before opting for a musical life, Alice studied law. Afterwards, she studied performing arts cênicas at Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro. He first professional recording was at the age of 12 in her aunt Nana's album Desejo, more specifically at the track "Seus Olhos", written by her sister Juliana. Shortly after, they performed the song with Nana at a sold-out Canecão. In 2007, she took part of the ending ceremony of the 2007 Pan American Games with her father Danilo.

In 2012, via a partnership between Kuarup and Sony Music, she released her first, self-titled album, followed by a number of tours. The album is mainly original, except for two cover songs: one originally by Dorival Caymmi and another by Björk.

Two years later, she released her second album, Rainha dos Raios, this time with mostly cover versions and just two new songs, including a partnership with Michael Sullivan. In 2015, her version of "Como Vês" was featured at Rede Globo's miniseries Felizes para Sempre?.

In October 2015, Alice was preparing her first live DVD, to be directed by São Paulo Fashion Week creator Paulo Borges.
