ANDRÈ CAVALCANTE

"Solo acoustic instrumental fingerstyle Guitar"

After completing a bachelor's degree in classical guitar at the University of Rio de Janeiro, André found his calling in music production. He has become one of the most respected producers in Brazil's religious music segment, working with Universal Music, Sony, and Somlivre, as well as some of the biggest names on the Brazilian scene - among them Gabriela Rocha, Paula Fernandes, Sandy, and Zé Neto e Cristiano.

The results speak for themselves: three Grammy nominations as a music producer and mixing/mastering engineer, plus multiple awards at major Brazilian music festivals.

But André is also a remarkable solo artist in his own right - his fingerstyle technique is breathtaking. His debut instrumental fingerstyle album has racked up over 8 million views on YouTube, cementing his reputation as a charismatic and gifted musician. His rendition of Hillsong's "Oceans" alone has surpassed 4 million YouTube views - an impressive achievement.
