Born and raised in Belém, Pará, Saulo Duarte's guitar playing is rooted in the Country-style picking of 'guitarrada' music from the north of Brazil. But Saulo is now living in São Paulo, the nation's commercial hub, and with his more international sound, has become one of Brazil's most in-demand musicians. He has previously released three albums with his former collective Saulo Duarte & A Unidade.
