A singer-songwriter from Minas Gerais who blends sertanejo rhythms with worship music.
If you want to hear what he's about, try "Mãe de Nazaré" or "A Rotina Ribeirinha." They give you the folk feel and the clear-eyed faith in one package.
Nerys makes music that feels grounded in a specific place and purpose. Songs like "Mãe de Nazaré" show how he folds Brazilian folk textures into straightforward worship. He's not trying to be subtle about it, the ministry he runs with his wife is called "Nossa Vida É Missão," and the music follows that lead.
He grew up in a religious household in Ubá, Minas Gerais, surrounded by hymns. After what he calls a spiritual awakening in 1990, he started writing songs dedicated to Christian messages. These days he tours Brazil and Latin America with a band that includes his wife Marilene on vocals and percussion.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
