Released in the same year as his collaboration with Milton Nascimento on the legendary Clube da Esquina album, Lo Borges explores similar musical territory, combining heartfelt lyricism, acoustic textures, and Brazilian rhythms with psychedelic and progressive rock influences. This album highlights Borges’ introspective songwriting, poetic approach, and knack for creating memorable melodies with a contemporary edge.
