Career

Born in São Paulo, Dinucci grew up in Guarulhos, where he was a member of several rock bands, including Personal Choice in the 1990s.[1][2] In 2007 he began his career as a songwriter, authoring eight songs of the album Padê he recorded with Juçara Marçal.[1][2] In 2008 he released the samba-punk album Pastiche Nagô with Bando Afromacarrônico.[3]

In 2011 he co-founded the groups Metá Metá, together with Juçara Marçal and Thiago França, and Passo Torto, with Romulo Fróes, Rodrigo Campos and Marcelo Cabral, later joined by Ná Ozzetti.[2]

His first proper solo album Cortes Curtos was released in 2017 and consists of 15 short tracks - chronicling stories set in the city of São Paulo - exploring the sound of "samba sujo", with strong influences from rock, punk and post-punk.[4] The album was voted the 21st best Brazilian album of 2017 by Rolling Stone Brasil magazine.[5]
