Bio
Building a dual-fold music career as a studio recording and mixing engineer, with his bands or as an independent artist, recording several albums as a guest musician from 1995 until 2004. Michael was playing in pubs, festivals, stadiums, with several musicians and bands playing all styles of music and rhythms. Making it a great experience for safety and later go to your career solo artist with the ukulele.
Influenced by Classic Rock, Pop, Latin and Brazilian music, he puts his stamp on his way to play music matching the elegance of Brazilian Music and the daring improvisation of Bossa Nova into a beautiful musical form the can and will be appreciated by both Brazilians and Non-Brazilian music fans alike.
In July of 2011, Michael released virtually his first album “Uke Can Play Uke”, with a style of playing the ukulele a little different, without departing from its essence, but with a little vision of Brazil. The approach and choice of songs that he plays on the ukulele show the different musical influences that he has, so the songs are played with very different rhythms such as the ballad, the ijexá, bossa nova, Indian songs, and of course Hawaiian music.
We are working on Michael Mariano new album, which should be released next month.
