A singer from a northeastern village whose direct voice and unpolished recordings found an audience.
If you're new to his music, start with 'Fazenda Velha' and 'Vivendo de Lembranças.' They frame what he does pretty well.
His song 'Fazenda Velha' became widely known in Brazil and still gets played today. There's something about that direct, unpolished quality in his singing that connects with listeners who appreciate music that doesn't sound overly produced. Tracks like 'Vivendo de Lembranças' and 'Lençol Azul' have that same plainspoken feel.
He was a Brazilian singer from the village of Carira who recorded several albums in the 1970s and early 1980s, including 'Fazenda Velha' in 1977. He sometimes worked with musicians like guitarist Antônio Carlos and accordionist Dominguinhos.
