my latest song & video... MAKE IT RIGHT!
Having keyboards (specially the old school ones), vocals and acoustic guitar as main instruments, I’m a musician living in North London since April 2008.
Since I got in the UK, I’ve been somehow involved in a few originals projects with some very talented singer/songwritters, from R'nB to Pop Rock. You can check some videos scrolling down this website.
Apart from that, I'm also the keys and BVs in a functions/covers band called SOUL FUNK SECRET (www.soulfunksecret.com) and been deping in a few other bands such as FAMILY FUNK (www.familyfunk.co.uk), BB COLLECTIVE (www.thebbcollective.com).
Now, back in my Brazilian days, basically my musical career started in 1995 in a covers soul band called THE HARD WORKING BAND, which has recorded 3 CDs and sold over 25.000 copies, with a full agenda of over 90 gigs per year in the south of Brazil. In 2001, I moved on to a powerpop/rock band VIDEO HITS with its first CD named REGISTRO SONORO OFICIAL released by the Brazilian major label Abril Music. After that, I joined TOM BLOCH, an independent alternative rock band that had previously recorded its homonymous CD and had it distributed by another label TRAMA. In 2004, I featured as a guest musician in the recording of the Acoustic and 10th Year Anniversary CD and DVD of the pop band PAPAS DA LINGUA (www.papasdalingua.com.br), a very successful release that sold over 50.000 CDs and 30.000 DVDs, with songs included in a nationally broadcasted soap opera in Brazil. Also in 2004, I was invited for the recording of another acoustic album, featuring as keyboard player and backing vocalist for CIDADÃO QUEM (www.cidadaoquem.com.br), a well succeeded rock band from Porto Alegre, with 7 records released in a 15 years long career. The last album called "7" was released recently and also features my keyboards and backing vocal arrangements. Along with CIDADÃO QUEM, I’ve played in parallel projects like the instrumental old school funk and rock oriented band KUNG FU, a talented hip hop singer/MC/songwritter called LICA and the unpretentious and definitely not serious acoustic “camp fire” classic rock versions band called CONFRARIA ACÚSTICA, in which apart from keys, I also hit the strings of my acoustic guitar and share the lead vocals.
