Bio
Claudão Pilha was the drummer for Os Meldas, one of the craziest bands from Belo Horizonte in the late 1980s and through the 90s. He later hit the skins for Estrume’n’tal, a surf-punk outfit with two albums released worldwide and participation in over a dozen surf music comps from all over, and the Juremas, a 10-piece band made up of five boyfriend-girlfriend couples. Claudao had always played his acoustic guitar in the dark hours of the night when no one would see, and had written several songs for his bands. One day he flipped and bought himself an electric axe. He looked at it for three months, not quite knowing what to do, as if it were ready to bite him on the butt. Then it hit him: he would become O Melda and play by himself, stand-up-one-man-band style, sort of. Got himself drum sequencing software, guitar on his hand and his percussive helmet – an invention that could only have sprouted from a brain as damaged by years of beer drinking as his. His songs criticize mankind by making fun of himself, and if people have a good time listening to them, well, that’s the idea.
