Branco Mello – Wiki, Bio, Age, Wife, Net Worth

In May 2018, he was diagnosed with a tumor in his larynx, which will force him to step down from the band activities for three months. He should be back in time to record the Doze Flores Amarelas DVD.

At the first great break of the band, Mello joined Sérgio Britto, another member of the band, and the drummer Roberta Parisi and formed the band Kleiderman, where he sang and played the bass. The group presented strong lyrics and aggressive sound, and released an album called Con el Mundo a mis Pies (With the World at my Feet). In 2000, he formed the band S. Futuristmo. Although the objective of the band was only fun, they were invited to perform at Tenda Brasil do Rock 3, in January 2001.

Mello lives in Rio de Janeiro, with his wife, the actress and producer Angela Figueiredo, his two sons, Bento, born in 1991, and Joaquim, born in 1999, and his stepdaughter, Diana Bouth.

His works for the cinema came up again in 1985, at the movie Areias Escaldantes, playing a small role of a sushi chef and a manicure.

In 1982, he was one of the presenters of TV Eclipse, a spectacle that parodied programs and featured almost all nine members that would later found the Titãs do Iê-Iê. At this spectacle Mello would play the role of a presenter who was a mixture of Flavio Cavalcante and Hebe Camargo.

In 1981, Mello and eight friends founded the band Titãs, at that time called Titãs do Iê-Iê.
