Seu Jorge

Raw and soulful, acclaimed Brazilian singer, songwriter, and musician Seu Jorge’s works draw from his childhood experience navigating a favela outside of Rio de Janeiro. His melodies are stripped and untainted fusing classic American and European soul music with psychedelic samba. Best known for his contributions to the soundtrack for the film "A Life Aquatic" and for his portrayal in the celebrated film "City of God" - which drew worldwide attention to the modern reality of poverty and life in the slums - Seu Jorge is an icon in the making.
