He was born in Blumenau - Santa Catarina - Brazil. Perhaps this could partially explain the eclecticism found in his music, if one considers the incredible cultural and musical diversity of his country. But the most accurate explanation lies in his music background, which features many different genres (Lucio graduated in 2002 from Berklee College of Music-Boston-MA, with a Bachelor's Degree in Film Scoring) . Virtual Jungle's music is an eclectic blend o rock, electronica and jazz-funk, with some classical and Brazilian bossa-nova influences. Its debut recording features Lucio's "impressive vocal range and great instrumental skills on the guitar, as well as on various other instruments". It also features top Brazilian drummer Mauricio Zottarelli (Marc Rossi's Jazz Quintet, Sal Di Fusco's Band) and guitarist Gustavo Assis Brasil (Guitar Player's Magazine Spotlight, The Dig Trio), a rising star in Jazz/Fusion circles, as a special guest.
