#199 Xande de Pilares

Xande de Pilares is Jorge Perlingeiro's guest on episode 199. One of the most emblematic figures of contemporary samba, Xande left Grupo Revelação and built a highly successful solo career, which already includes seven albums, several projects, compositions, six winning samba enredos, and a Latin Grammy. His two latest releases were the award-winning "Xande Canta Caetano" and the most recent "Nos Braços do Povo," released in two volumes. In the second half of 2026, after 11 years, he will return to perform with Grupo Revelação on a commemorative tour, at one of the most anticipated samba events of the year. In his voice, Xande immortalized songs that became true anthems, such as "Deixa Acontecer," "Clareou," and the unbeatable "Tá Escrito," which, in addition to being a symbol of overcoming adversity, became a chant for Fluminense fans. So, let's send this sadness away and let Xande de Pilares find us naturally, and let no one cry. And, when you least expect it… It will clear up, and only if it's now!!!
