Career
editBorn 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, penning eight songs for the album Padê, which 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 two 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 inaugural solo album, Cortes Curtos, was released in 2017. Comprising 15 brief tracks that chronicle stories within the city of São Paulo, the album delves into the sound of samba sujo, heavily influenced by rock, punk, and post-punk.[4] The album was voted the 21st best Brazilian album of 2017 by Rolling Stone Brasil magazine.[5]
