About

I am a musician, composer, and music producer based in Braga, Portugal, working mainly as a double bass and electric bass player in jazz and other genres.

I lead an original project focused on my own compositions and have released several records, including Ecos, Vol. 1, Ecos, Vol. 2, and Sons Rupestres, as well as Histórias que nos contam with Bruma. My work has been presented at festivals and venues such as Cool Jazz Festival and Antena 2. I am available for remote work and international collaborations.
