Fernando Noronha

Although hailing from the Gaucha capital of Porto Alegre, Fernando has always identified musically with Texas Blues differentiating from popular Brazilian music. He has backed up and worked closely with Greats such as B.B. King, Chuck Berry, Buddy Guy, Chris Duarte (who produced two albums for Fernando), Ron Levy and many more. Through the very definition of blues, combining African rhythms with European compositions, this Brazilian Blues band re-invents the genre while taking their loyal public to new heights. With the release of their 8th album, "Time Keeps Rolling", Fernando Noronha & Black Soul continue to strengthen their global presence through their partnership with Worldhaus Music based out of Austin, Texas. In 2017, Fernando and Worldhaus look forward to releasing their breakout album on three continents: North America, South America and Europe, release their new road movie "Chicago to New Orleans", reinvigorate known and conquer new markets with their tight-knit sound. Fernando Noronha is one of Brazil's most electrifying blues guitar icons. For 20 years, Fernando has been a fixture in the global folk and blues scene completing various South American tours annually, 10 tours in Europe and 2 North American.
