With great influence on Brazilian Popular Music (MCB), the artist has already been honored by the #MCBEmCasa campaign and, now, is included in the nominations of the Museu da Casa Brasileira with some of his most iconic projects.
Throughout his career, the musician – who has already been nominated three times for the Latin Grammy and several times for national awards – recorded nine albums, in addition to having made numerous partnerships for productions in studio and on stage throughout Brazil. During the pandemic period, which has been going on since mid-2020, Ferragutti has also been reinventing itself and carrying out online projects with the aim of spreading the culture of Brazilian music and the accordion.
