Who is Grelo?
Gabriel De Ângelo, 26, was born in Anápolis, in the interior of Goiás. Before his career as a singer, he had some of his lyrics re-recorded by big names in sertanejo music.
“I was traumatized”, by Henrique and Juliano; “Forget Me If You Can”, by Maiara & Maraisa and Marília Mendonça; and “Erro Gostoso”, a hit by Simone Mendes, are some of the main lyrics written by Grelo.
During a fishing trip with composers, selecting the repertoire for the new project, Henrique and Juliano discovered the composer’s talent as a musician, and began to manage his new career.
Grelo is currently preparing a tour to take his viral hits beyond social media. The singer, who signs his songs as De Ângelo, adopted the stage name “Grelo” on stage due to his thin body type, as his friends nicknamed him “grilo” or “skinny”. He decided to combine the two nicknames and adopt “Grelo”.
