Biography

The Grupo Doce Encontro is a romantic pagode band formed in 1998 in the city of São Paulo. The band's name was inspired by a bar called "Doce Encontro," the place where the founders used to play before the final structuring of the project. In 2003, the group went through a restructuring, consolidating its current lineup with Eder Miguel (vocals and songwriter), Tiago Alexandre (cavaco and production), Cauê Neves (pandeiro), and Thiagão (tantã).

Throughout their career, Doce Encontro has released several hits, such as "Segue Sua Vida," "Sem Razão," "Alucinado," "Homem Perfeito," and "Tô de Saco Cheio." The group has released albums like "Além dos Limites" (2004), "Ascendente" (2007), "Lua" (2016), and more recent projects such as "Doce Encontro 20 Anos" (2023) and "Doce Encontro Sunset" (2024). In 2024, they released the track "Guerra, Amor e Paz" in partnership with Sorriso Maroto, reinforcing their continuity and relevance in the genre.

With a sound that blends traditional pagode with contemporary influences, Doce Encontro stands out for its romantic lyrics and engaging melodies. The group has collaborated with various artists from the Brazilian music scene, such as Sorriso Maroto, Renato da Rocinha, Vitinho, Kamisa 10, Caju Pra Baixo, and Thiago Soares, demonstrating the strength and reach of their music.
