Musical Interludes featuring Everton Azevedo

Everton Vidal Azevedo Guitarist – Composer – South American Artist Everton Vidal Azevedo is a Brazilian guitarist and composer with deep roots in the Amazon rainforest and a passion for the rich musical traditions of South America. His early musical journey was shaped by spiritual traditions and an innate curiosity, leading him to explore guitar, voice, and rhythm from a very young age. Over the years, his style evolved into a vibrant fusion of Brazilian music, Latin American folk, instrumental rock, and contemporary pop. After years of performing, recording, and collaborating in Brazil and Bolivia —including with the Santa Cruz City Orchestra and the acclaimed Camerata del Oriente— Everton developed a distinctive voice as both a soloist and ensemble player. His solo work blends lyrical melodies, folkloric roots, and a modern sensibility. His album Nuances features original compositions; Christmas Acoustic Songs is an instrumental and vocal EP reinterpreting classic holiday tunes; and Identidad , recorded with violin and percussion, reimagines traditional music from Eastern Bolivia through the lens of jazz, rock, and other Latin American and global styles. Now based in Southwest Florida, Everton is a founding member of Sudamérica Latin Groove, a multicultural group formed by musicians from several South American countries, dedicated to fusing Latin repertoire with American and world music genres. Since arriving in the United States, he has been actively performing and collaborating throughout the region while continuing to develop new solo material. With teaching experience in Brazil and Bolivia, Everton continues to offer private instruction today, driven by a desire to share the richness of South American music with new audiences. His performances weave together tradition and innovation, offering a sound that is both fresh and familiar—rooted in cultural heritage and musical exploration.
