Pepeu Gomes
In his teens, Pepeu Gomes took up the guitar, bandolim and electric guitar. In the 70's, Gomes played with the Northeastern band Novos Baianos. When they split up in 1978, Pepeu went for a solo career, releasing his first album, "Geração de Som", which featured instrumental music only. In the 80's, performing with his wife - singer Baby Consuelo, who later changed her artistic name to Baby do Brasil -, Pepeu Gomes turned into a rock icon, and started performing as a singer, as well. During that period, he recorded one of his greatest hits, "Masculino e Feminino" in the U.S..
In the late 80's, Pepeu shifted back to instrumental music and played jazz festivals. In 1989, he released the album "Instrumental On The Road". In the990's, he focused on his work as a guitarist and re-released some old chorinhos like "Brasileirinho" (Waldir Azevedo) and "Noites Cariocas" (Jacob do Bandolim), which he used to play in the early days of his career, establishing his reputation as a virtuoso on the guitar. In 1999, he introduced a more pop style into his music, on the album "Meu Coração".
