Ponta Grossa Singer Gui Augustto Releases Original Album This Saturday

The singer and composer Gui Augustto releases album on Ponta Grossa this Saturday (12), from 14h, at the CEU das Artes. The singer and composer from Ponta Grossa will present to the public “Batidas do Coração”, a new work produced by artists from the city. The event will have free entry.

In an interview with BnT News, Gui said that the launch is part of a project approved through a cultural notice from PROMIFIC, the Secretariat of Culture. The work was also supported by SESC in the recording of audiovisual materials.

During this Saturday’s event, the audience will be able to follow the live songs, meet some of the professionals who participated in the album and participate in a chat about the production process.

Album brings together artists from Ponta Grossa

The new work has about eight author tracks. According to Gui Augustto, some of the compositions already existed for some time and were waiting for an opportunity to be transformed into a complete project.

Among the partnerships cited by the artist are Sílvia Almeida, GuegPR and MC Pa.

The musical production was in charge of Tarcísio Marenda. Lucas Alcântara participates in backing vocals, Ricardo Correia acts on drums and percussion and Hugo participates on bass.

For Gui, bringing together different professionals in the project is also a way to strengthen the cultural production of Ponta Grossa.

Pop, soul, R&B and rap are among the references of Gui Augustto

During the interview, the singer explained that he does not seek to define his work within just one musical genre.

The album brings together influences from pop, black music, R&B, soul music and rap. Among the musical references cited by the artist are Michael Jackson, Tim Maia, James Brown and Sandra de Sá.

Rap also appears as an important influence on its trajectory and is present in partnerships developed with local artists.
