BIOGRAPHY
Born in a family with more than four generations of native musicians, from Chapada Diamantina, Macaúbas-BA, Filipe Moreno was born in Salvador-BA. His house was always watered by great musicians and quality music. Self-taught, Filipe, starts playing the piano at the age of 5, by ear. Influenced by the extremely musical family, valuing good music and always identifying himself with Brazilian music, at the age of thirteen he gains a massive bass from the Father and also starts playing by ear. The musician says that it was a gift from God, the auditory sensibility and the musicality that was perceived from a young age by his family, who today tell him stories of that time. From the age of 14 he starts to work professionally with music, even at a young age, he was already aware of what he wanted with his own art, always carrying his musical “truth” in his luggage more than accepted by the musical identity that the artist has in his vein. He manages to open a wide range for Brazilian instrumental music and is already recognized for that in Brazil and in part of the world.
The Premio Nabor, in Indaiatuba-SP, was awarded third place at the national instrumentalists festival, with the song “Meu Tabuleiro”, a song that gives the title to his first album, in which it was performed in bass solo.
With tours in Germany, the United Kingdom and Brazil, Filipe brings a classic lightness to develop his work of Brazilian Jazz. In his musical journey, he accompanied and recorded with some great national artists such as: Gilson Peranzzetta, Diego Figueiredo, Yamandu Costa, Moraes Moreira, Raul de Souza, Roberto Menescal, Margareth Menezes, Nelson Faria, Leila Pinheiro, Armandinho Macêdo, Oswaldinho do Acordeom, among others.
Filipe develops his bass solo project where he has performed at important festivals in Brazil and around the world. The new way of playing the bass has enchanted the newest audiences that have formed at each performance by the irreverent way of playing the bass without leaving the essence and adding new directions to music and the bass instrument of six strings.
