Биография

Daniel Santiago is a composer, guitarist and music producer who for the past 20 years has been an active and key contributor to the Brazilian and world music scenes. Originally from Brazil, Santiago is deeply rooted in the traditional sounds of his homeland, and also cites English rock of the 1970’s and 80’s and the contemporary aesthetic and complexities of modern jazz as major influences upon his unique and diverse musical world. His work is characterized by the development and search for an original sonic language, and a remarkable ability to translate deep, resonant emotion through whichever musical medium he chooses. In addition to collaborations with Milton Nascimento, Joao Bosco, Hamilton de Holanda, Ivan Lins and many others, Santiago has released three of his own records. Santiago formed a duo with fellow Heartcore Records artist Pedro Martins in 2015. Together they released “Simbiose”. Following the initial success of “Simbiose”, Santiago and Martins were subsequently invited by Eric Clapton to participate in the 2019 Crossroads Guitar Festival. Daniel Santiago has opened yet another chapter as he prepares to release "Song For Tomorrow", his latest album and first on Heartcore Records and produced by Kurt Rosenwinkel . A return to Santiago’s musical origins, "Song For Tomorrow" is an ambitious new collection of original songs through which the guitarist and composer communes with his greatest musical influences.
