Based in São Paulo and formed in 2017, Tagua Tagua is led by songwriter and producer Felipe Puperi. After writing two EPs, “Tombamento Inevitável” (2017) and “Pedaço Vivo” (2018), Tagua Tagua released his first LP “Inteiro Metade” (2020).
The album intertwines tropical psychedelia, the principles of ye ye ye and the influence of funk and soul all while being dominated by supple melodies and dreamlike timbres.
After years of praise in at home, he’s begun to garner attention overseas with features on NPR, Remezcla, spins on KCRW and KEXP, a sync on the FIFA 20 soundtrack and a few tours in the United States and Europe. He supported a couple of shows for The Growlers, performed at SXSW and at Brazil Summerfest NYC.
Recently Tagua Tagua has joined the Wonderwheel Recordings family with a tender selection of cuts for his latest album ‘Tanto’ (2023). Recorded in the rural outskirts of Sao Paulo there is a sense of yearning that permeates throughout the set list of ten unapoxlogetic love songs that fly between lush psychedelic pop to warm, beat-laden neo-soul with Brazilian flavor.
Whereas ‘Inteiro Metade’ had changing musical personalities from tropical psychedelic to funk and soul, ‘Tanto’ only flirts outside of the mellow psychedelic soul prism and whilst there are ebbs and flows, it delights in its sparse and sweet minimalism.
Since releasing “Tanto” (2023), Tagua Tagua has been touring all over the country, where he headlined a 12-dates tour. Tagua Tagua has then become one of the most promising names and interesting acts in Brazil nowadays.
