Garrido

**Garrido** is the vibrant Brazilian musical project led by multi-instrumentalist and producer João Garrido. Known for blending traditional Brazilian rhythms like samba, forró, and maracatu with modern electronic beats and global influences, Garrido’s sound is a colorful, danceable fusion that feels both rooted and refreshingly experimental. Their tracks—from the cheeky energy of "Quarentona" to the hypnotic pulse of "Suba Cá Sobe"—often pair playful, conversational lyrics with grooves that nod to Brazil’s rich musical heritage while pushing boundaries.

Since emerging from São Paulo’s eclectic music scene, Garrido has become a staple in Brazil’s alternative dance culture, celebrated for live shows that turn crowds into sweating, grinning mobs. Releases like "Tango Bem" and "Rumba" showcase their knack for turning regional sounds into universal party starters, while João’s collaborations with visual artists and filmmakers add a quirky, DIY aesthetic to the project. Whether you’re shuffling to "Cucucu" or floating through "Lenádo," Garrido’s music feels like a sun-soaked, genre-blurring conversation between past and future.
