Editor's note

Edilson Maia, the Capixaba singer from Linhares

A songwriter whose 1998 anthem 'Passeia Espírito Santo' became a regional touchstone.

For a sense of his sound, 'Eu Sou de Deus' and 'Quantas Noites' are good places to start. They frame his straightforward, local approach.

His music is rooted in the traditional sounds of Capixaba culture, giving a voice to his home state. Songs like 'Eu Sou de Deus' and 'Quantas Noites' reflect that regional identity. The 1998 track 'Passeia Espírito Santo' turned into an unofficial anthem for Espírito Santo.

He put out his first album 'Água de Chuva' in 1986. Later releases like 'Capixaba do Norte' in 2004 and 'Sentido da Vida' in 2017 kept that regional focus. His band has featured musicians like guitarist Marcelo Falcão.
