Editor's note

Zé Potiguar, a songwriter from coastal Natal

His music draws from the blend of traditions in his hometown, with lyrics on cultural mixing and local themes.

For a sense of his style, try "Miscigenação" or "Terra Sem Lei." They get at that coastal mix he writes about.

Zé Potiguar wrote "Miscigenação" in 2009, a song that names his band and album. It reflects the indigenous, African, and European cultures he grew up with in Natal. Songs like "Terra Sem Lei" and "O Pescador Antônio Lobo" build on that, and he's worked with Daniela Mercury, Gilberto Gil, and Caetano Veloso.

Born José Severiano da Silva Neto in Natal in 1958, he released "Miscigenação" in 2010. Later albums include "Etcidades" in 2015 and "Luz" in 2019, with songs like "Nossos Jovens" and "A Distância" in his catalog.
