Johnny Hooker

Johnny Hooker is a prominent Brazilian singer, songwriter, and actor known for his highly theatrical performances, blend of musical styles, and powerful exploration of queer identity, love, and heartbreak. Born John Lincoln de Souza Silva on March 6, 1987, in Recife, Pernambuco, he rose to fame in the 2010s, quickly establishing himself as a unique and provocative voice in Brazilian music (MPB). His music is often described as a compelling mix of rock, samba, brega (a romantic Brazilian pop style), and dramatic pop ballads.
