Seu Jorge

Jorge Mário da Silva (born June 8, 1970), known as Seu Jorge (Seu, Brazilian Portuguese for "Mister" or "Sir"; Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈsew ˈʒɔʁʒi]), is a Brazilian musician, singer, songwriter, and actor.

He is considered by many to be a renewer of Brazilian pop samba. Seu Jorge cites samba schools and American soul singer Stevie Wonder as major musical influences.

Seu Jorge is also known for his film roles as Mané Galinha in City of God (2002), as Pelé dos Santos in The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (2004) and as a cowboy in Asteroid City (2023). His musical work has received praise from many fellow musicians, including David Bowie, Beck and Jarvis Cocker.
