Born in 1951, Hyldon has been making a living from music since he was 14 years old and together with Tim Maia and Cassiano, he formed the sacred triad of Brazilian soul music. In 1973, he recorded his first single "Na Rua, na Chuva, na Fazenda (Casinha de Sapê). The following year, he released another single "As Dores do Mundo". After these two hit songs, he finally managed to record his long-awaited album "Na Rua, na Chuva, na Fazenda".

At the same time, Hyldon's songs are included in movie soundtracks such as "City of God", "Carandiru" e "Antônia", among others. In 2012, by the invitation of the Portuguese band Orelha Negra, he took part in Rock in Rio Lisbon. In 2017, he shared the Sunset Stage with singer and songwriter Ana Cañas.
