Frank Jorge is one of the most popular and richest Singer-Songwriter who was born on September 20, 1966 in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.
Jorge Otávio Pinto Pouey de Oliveira (born September 20, 1966), better known by his stage name Frank Jorge, is a Brazilian singer-songwriter, lyricist, multi-instrumentalist, poet, chronicler and professor, famous for his work with pioneering Rio Grande do Sul rock bands Os Cascavelletes and Graforreia Xilarmônica.
He learned how to play the classical guitar in mid-1981, and in 1983 formed his first band, Prisão de Ventre, alongside Luís “Tchê” Gomes (a future member of TNT) and brothers Alexandre and Marcelo Birck. They only recorded two songs before disbanding circa 1985. In 1987 Jorge reunited with the Birck brothers and, alongside Carlo Pianta, formed Graforreia Xilarmônica, which achieved a huge cult following in the mid-1990s with their humorous songs. Around the same time, invited by his childhood friend Alexandre Barea, Jorge was invited to join Os Cascavelletes as bassist; alongside vocalist Flávio Basso he wrote one of their most famous (and controversial) hits, “Menstruada”. He left Os Cascavelletes in 1988, after the release of their debut EP, to focus solely on Graforreia Xilarmônica. After releasing two critically acclaimed albums, Coisa de Louco II (1995) and Chapinhas de Ouro (1998), they broke up in 2000. Graforreia Xilarmônica reunited in 2005, and Jorge continues to perform with them since then.
