Luiz Melodia
Luiz Carlos dos Santos, widely known by his stage name Luiz Melodia, was a Brazilian singer-songwriter whose music was a characteristic crossover of multiple Music genres including Música popular brasileira, rock music, blues, soul music and samba. He has been described as 'one of the most important Brazilian-born musicians.' Son of samba music dilettante Oswaldo 'Melodia', Melodia grew up on a morro in the Estácio district—often referred to as the 'Birthplace [or cradle] of Samba'. Melodia's first LP record, Pérola negra, was released in 1973. He married fellow singer-songwriter and record producer Jane Reis, a Bahia native, in 1977; their only son, rapper Mahal Reis, was born in 1980. Melodia had another son, Iran, from a previous relationship. Over the course of his career, Melodia released several studio albums and performed extensively in both Brazil and Europe. In 1987, he sang in Châteauvallon, France, and Bern, Switzerland. In 1992, he appeared at the III Folcalquier Music Festival, again in France, and, in 2004, at the Montreux Jazz Festival.
