Paulo Jorge do Carmo Brissos (born 19 May 1970) is a Portuguese singer.
Biography[edit]
At the early age of 13, Paulo Brissos started to learn music at the Ateneu Artístico Vilafranquense amateur school, where he played clarinet in the band for a few years. Later, he taught himself to play the guitar and consequently began writing his own songs. In 1986, he began singing in bars in Lisbon and in 1991 he started his first steps as a resident singer on the TV shows ET and Sons do Sol. His first appearance as a singer for a large audience was at the Portuguese RTP song contest for the European Eurovision Song Contest in 1991 with the vocal group Blocco. In 1993, he went solo at the same contest with the song "No Dia Seguinte".
In 1994, he released his first album, People Amigo, and in 1997 signed a contract with the multinational Polygram and released his second album, Criação.[1] This album provided two singles, "Criação" and "Serás Tu". The song "Serás Tu" was part of the soundtrack of the Portuguese television drama series Terra Mãe and is now part of the soundtrack of the drama series Sentimentos.
In 2001, he released the EP Sete e Meia and in 2003 the album Direitas, from which the single "Mulher Ideal" was part of the soundtrack for the television drama Olhar da Serpente.
Brissos produced the first records of Sergio Rossi and Paula Teixeira and as a songwriter wrote songs for Portuguese artists including Excesso,[2] Sergio Rossi,[3] Paula Teixeira,[4] Adelaide Ferreira,[5] and Ana Isabel Baptista.[6] In 2007, Brissos graduated in music production at Valencia Community College and in 2009 released his first live CD/DVD, Concerto Acustico, on the Espacial label.[7]
