The seductive Brazilian singer/guitarist has recorded two luminous and sunny albums on Crammed's Ziriguiboom imprint: Natural (2003), in which he soulfully revisited the very roots of pure, acoustic bossa & samba, and  Rive Gauche Rio (2005), an elegant and sensual tribute to his beloved city of Rio and to the Parisian Left Bank.
