Discover the mesmerising world of Pedro Martins, the Brazilian guitarist, vocalist, composer who purveys a unique brandlend of jazz fusion, infused with a synthetic quasi-80s pop aesthetic, tinged with neo-psychedelia. A prolific collaborator with peers the likes of Thundercat, Jacob Collier, JD Beck, Louis Cole, Genevieve Artardi amongst others, Pedro continues to captivate audiences worldwide with his unparalleled talent and boundless creativity.
Pedro hit the headlines in 2015, when he won the prestigious Montreux Guitar Competition as a young Brazilian prodigy and made a strong impression on the jury formed by Kurt Rosenwinkel and John McLaughlin. After studying guitar and piano as a child, this eclectic Brazilian musician has become a multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter perfectly at ease with typical Brazilian genres like samba and choro, as well as with jazz, fusion, progressive rock, and world music.
Pedro Martins
Martins started playing guitar at the age of three, taught by his master musician father, Oscar Azevedo. He later studied classical piano before diving into bands and eventually releasing his own solo album, Dreaming High, in 2011. In 2015, he won the first Guitar Prize at the Montreux Jazz Competition, catching the eye of Kurt Rosenwinkel, leading to their musical partnership.
Martins has also curated events and toured with Rosenwinkel's Caipi Band. Their album received widespread acclaim, featuring artists like Eric Clapton. Martins has performed at prestigious events like Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival. In addition to these collaborations, Martins has worked with other jazz greats like Michael Pipoquinha and Jacob Collier.
