Early life

Son of Alcino and Sebastiana Lima, Gusttavo was born in Presidente Olegário, Minas Gerais. In 1999, when he was just 9 years old, he went to Patos de Minas for sing with your brothers, who had a band called Trio Remelexo. When he was 13 years old, he left the band and went to Brasília, where he changed his stage name to "Gustavo" and assembled a double called Gustavo & Alessandro.

Musical career

In 2009, he released his first album Gusttavo Lima, containing 24 tracks. The song that most stood out was "Rosas, Versos e Vinhos", which reached the first position in a local radio, and it also reached #57 in Billboard Brasil charts. In 2010, he signed with Som Livre label[2] and released Inventor dos Amores, as a CD and DVD, with sales of 15,000 copies. The title track was a collaboration with Jorge & Mateus, reaching #17 in the Brazilian Billboard Brasil charts.
