A Brazilian musician whose songs feel like afternoon sun on the Salvador coast.
If you want to get his vibe, put on 'Tarde de Sol' or 'Como Os Animais.' They're pure, uncomplicated Bahia.
His 1997 debut included 'Outra Vida,' which became a hit and introduced his easygoing style. Songs like 'Como Os Animais' and 'Tarde de Sol' have that same warm, rhythmic pull. He's worked with names like Gilberto Gil and Mario Caldato Jr., but his music always sounds like it's just him, his guitar, and the Bahian breeze.
He started with that self-titled album in 1997. Later records like 'Casato' in 2001 and 'Sol Loiro' in 2007 kept the same relaxed feel. A 2017 album, 'Armandinho 20 Anos,' marked two decades since he began.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
