Editor's note

Nando Cordel's northeastern folk-rock in Rio

A singer-songwriter from Paraíba who brought baião and xote rhythms to 1970s Rio de Janeiro.

For his sound, try 'Olha Pro Céu' first. 'Viver em paz' is another good one.

He gave northeastern Brazilian music a folk-rock edge that felt at home in Rio's scene. Songs like 'Olha Pro Céu' show how he kept rural roots alive in the city. His 1978 album 'Banquete de Signos' captured that blend when it was still unusual.

Born Lindinaldo Bezerra dos Reis in Brejo da Madre de Deus, he moved to Rio in the mid-1970s. He recorded through the late '70s and '80s, sometimes with Banda de Pau e Corda. He kept performing until his death in 2017.
