Editor's note

Z - Maguinho do Piauí, the northeastern forró mixer

A Brazilian artist who blended traditional forró with pop, rock, and gospel from his home state of Piauí.

For a quick sense of his range, try 'Mulher Bandida' and the earlier 'Deus'. They frame that blend of faith and forró he was known for.

His 2005 debut album 'Deus' brought him national attention with its title track. Songs like 'Mulher Bandida' show how he mixed religious themes with popular rhythms, creating a sound that felt both local and expansive. He built a band with Naldo on bass, Galego on drums, and Piau on accordion, keeping that northeastern pulse alive.

He started making music in Piauí, influenced by accordionists like Sivuca and Dominguinhos. After 'Deus' in 2005, he released albums like 'O Reino de Deus' in 2006 and 'O Anjo da Guarda' in 2015. The charges were eventually dismissed.
