Gaúcho da Fronteira

Along with his successful commercial formula, which, contrasting using the ideals of purity from the Brazilian gaúchos, indiscriminately mixes rock and roll, forró, country music, and every fashionable style, Gaúcho da Fronteira transcended his regional success and became popular throughout Brazil. At seven, he used the four-button accordion, quickly also learning the accordion, the bandoneón, as well as the violão (classical guitar). In 1968, he became a member of the Operating-system Vaqueanos group, documenting O Rio Grande perform Sul Canta Com Operating-system Vaqueanos (Montevideo) within the same 12 months. The recording was accompanied by Canção perform Carreteiro within the next 12 months. He remained within the group until 1976; in 1975, he documented his first single LP, Gaúcho da Fronteira, and documented another 18 albums through the entire year 2000, enjoying raising recognition. His biggest strike was the vanerão “Nhecovari Nhecofum,” that was contained in Meu Rastro (WEA, 1980). In 1991, he published the soundtrack for the film Gaúcho Negro.
