Pedro Boeira (November 21, 1985) is a Brazilian musician, writer, cook, and hotel manager, born in Porto Algre, Rio Grande do Sul. He started writing and performing his own music at the tender age of 13 with his band Mindscape. In 1999 he teamed up with Thiago Spomberg for Divisão de Portais, an experimental, avant-garde effort. His first solo album was Experiments, recorded in only two days with clear influences of progressive rock and the work of Captain Beefhart. Promoting his album in 2001, Boeira said, “I made up this method of making music because I don’t know anybody who wants to be in a progressive rock band with me. Instead of giving up music, I decided to to something on my own, something different.” At the same time he composed a number of songs in MIDI format, collected in “The Well-Tempered MIDI”.Boeira took a break to go to college, and returned in 2007 with great ideas, experimenting even further the art of electronic sound. A book of his short stories is scheduled for release in March 2009.
