- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
The story behind Yonlu is one of tragedy and beauty. A young man from the
city of Porto Alegre, it can be hard to find one's identity in a Brazilian
city off the beaten path. Writing hundreds of songs in his youth, he
committed suicide at age 16 with nothing but his online community of fans and
the sounds he offered them. Sounding something like a cross between a lo-fi
Caetano Veloso meeting the guitar stylings of Nick Drake. This is a showcase
of the sounds of a soul lost between the lines, and fortunately he left
behind a taste of a young mind working wonders.
