He showed an aptitude for music early on: he formed his first band at age eight and was playing percussion in Rio clubs by the time he was 14. But he took his cultural wanderings a step further when he signed with Bay Area-based underground hip-hop label Quannum to release his 2005 debut, <I>Achados E Perdidos</i>.
