Dudu Maia

**Dudu Maia** is a Brazilian mandolin virtuoso (bandolim player) and composer deeply rooted in choro, samba, and forró traditions. Known for his nimble fingerwork and infectious energy, he’s become a leading figure in revitalizing Brazil’s instrumental music scene. Based in São Paulo, Dudu collaborates with heavyweights like Hamilton de Holanda and has released genre-blending projects that honor legends like Jacob do Bandolim (see *Viva Jacob do Bandolim*) while injecting modern flair. His recent work, from the pandemic-inspired *Quarantine Love Call* to the playful *Meu Forrózin*, showcases his range—mixing fiery live performances (check out *Pink Choro (Live)*) with studio experiments that fuse choro’s complexity with global grooves. Whether shredding onstage or reimagining roots music, Dudu keeps Brazil’s musical soul alive and kicking.
