Um Rio // Márcio Faraco's friends website

Márcio Faraco is one of the most important contemporary brasilian composers and performers with a smooth, pleasant singing voice and excellent guitar skills. It is striking that he has had to exile himself from his native Brazil and spend years of apprenticeship in France. His sound manages to evoke bossa nova masters like Antonio Carlos Jobim and Joao Gilberto while the frequent horn arrangements and string charts give the records an original appeal. Chico Buarque as a guest duet partner on the opening album Ciranda, marked a stamp of approval from Faraco's predecessors for an approach seemingly intended to open Brazilian music out to the world.
