Biography
Eduardo de Góes Lobo, born on August 29, 1943, in Rio de Janeiro, is a celebrated Brazilian singer, guitarist, composer, and arranger who gained prominence during the 1960s as part of the "second generation" of bossa nova artists. With a career that bridges traditional bossa nova and the politically charged Música Popular Brasileira (MPB), Edu Lobo has left a profound mark on Brazilian music. Early in his career, he collaborated with VinÃcius de Moraes, creating enduring works like "Arrastão," which won the first Festival de Música Popular Brasileira in 1965 and became a hit for Elis Regina. His partnerships with Chico Buarque yielded iconic songs like "Beatriz" and "Choro Bandido," while collaborations with Antônio Carlos Jobim and Sergio Mendes expanded his international reach. Albums like Edu Lobo em Bossa Nova (1963), Edu (1967), and Missa Breve (1973) showcase his evolving style, blending Brazilian rhythms with elements of jazz and classical music. The 1983 theatrical production O Grande Circo MÃstico stands out as a cultural milestone, bringing together music, ballet, and poetry. Edu Lobo's later years saw him earning accolades like the 1995 Sharp Award for Meia-noite and a 2002 Latin Grammy for Cambaio, cementing his legacy as a masterful composer and a key figure in MPB's history. In 2017, his collaborative LP Dos Navegantes with Romero Lumambo and Mauro Senise won a Latin Grammy for Best MPB Album. It was followed a year later by Edu, Dori e Marcos, another collaborative effort alongside Dori Caymmi and Marcos Valle.
