A singer from Exu, Pernambuco who mixes traditional sounds with modern appeal.
For his upbeat side, try "O Povo Gosta É do Piseiro." For something more sentimental, "Letícia" or "Indícios" give a good sense of his ballad style.
He's part of a wave of artists keeping regional Brazilian music alive for younger listeners. Songs like "Cadê o Amor?" show his straightforward melodic sense, while "O Povo Gosta É do Piseiro" with Eric Land captures the danceable energy that defines much of his work. His band, with Cleber Show on guitar and Carlinhos Moura on accordion, keeps the instrumentation rooted in the forró tradition.
He started releasing music in 2018 with his debut album "O Original," bringing a modern touch to the forró and piseiro sounds he grew up with in Exu. Since then, he's put out several albums including "Sem Limite" in 2019 and "O Poeta" in 2021, working within those same formats. In 2021, he faced criticism after remarks at a concert that were seen as homophobic, which he later apologized for.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
