Belchior is a well known Brazilian singer/songwriter. It is a totally solo project, where I blend lots of acoustic and electric guitars and keyboards, different samples and some drum loops. Although Belchior is not an instrumental composer, he will be revisited here like that. Also I am writing a chronicle book, where I describe situations I lived for 15 years on the road as a side man musician. Next year I will be recording an instrumental CD entirely based on Afro-Brazilian rhythms and percussion."
