Currently Head of Curation at City Lights Music Hall, Camarim, and Awe Caraivana.
Musical Curation since 2004:
* Aracaju Stage (2004 to 2017) *
Aracaju is my hometown and where I started organizing my first shows, initially focused on pu...nk and hardcore. Some of the bands I brought to the city include: Dead Fish, Garage Fuzz, Fresno, NX Zero, among others.
In 2013, I created Zons, a collective whose purpose was to produce musical films and release them at festivals with multiple artistic activities. Artists who participated in the project included: BNEgão, KL Jay, Curumin, Francisco El Hombre, Orquestra Contemporânea de Olinda, among others.
* City Lights Stage / Kingston * (2018 to present)
In 2017, I was invited to participate in a meeting of festival programmers from various regions of the country, which took place in Chile, called Imesur. There I met Lucas Flores, who was responsible for curating City Lights and was about to inaugurate Kingston Club, and he invited me to take over the curation of the venues with him.
In these almost 7 years of work, I would like to highlight some artists who participated in our curation: Marcos Valle, DJ Koco (Japan), Ska-talites, Luedji Luna, Rael, Russo Passapusso and Nomade Orquestra, Leci Brandão, Azymuth and Fernanda Abreu, Tassia Reis, Black Alien, Israel Vibration, Johnny Hooker, Academia de Berlinda, Los Sebosos Postizos, Boogarins, Carne Doce, Mestrinho and Mariana Aydar, Yago Oproprio, Febem, Banda Eddie, FBC, Ana Frango Elétrico, Joabe Reis invites Zudizilla, Paula Lima and Xênia França, among others.
* Inner Stage / Awe Caraivana * (2023 to present)
With the work done at City Lights, I was invited in 2023 to curate the Awe Caraivana project, a partnership between the São Paulo-based agency Inner and the Bahia-based band Caraivana. Some of the names we've confirmed: Criolo, Diogo Nogueira, Fran Gil, Negra Li, Mariana Aydar, Otto, Ana Cañas, and BNegão.
