In the late 2010's rumors of Super Secret Band began to grow around Portland Oregon. In recent months these rumors have been growing faster across the greater pacific northwest of a secret funky spacey festival band with rock fangs, jazz horns, and a powerful rhythm section. A band so super and so secret that not even the band members can acknowledge the band's existence. Concert goers claim Super Secret Band insists that no one should tell anyone about the band, unless of course they were doing so to tell people not to tell anyone else about the band.

In September 2021 The band released the single "Never Odd Or Even" as an NFT featuring the artworkof Portland based NFT artist Pop Wonder. This single was later released to streaming platforms worldwide via Dutch Records and is the title track of the band's upcoming new EP Never Odd or Even.

According to anonymous eyewitness testimony Super Secret Band headlined small festivals across the northwest in 2022 and is rumored to continue sharing Super Secrets with those willing to seek them out.. The sound ranges from Rock, to Jam, to Dark Jazz, to blues, to Funk, to Ambient sections that space all the way out before converging into funky slap bass driven experiences. The band's instrumental funky rock core highlights improvisational expression from a rotating cast of guest musicians creating a different Super Secret Experience each time.

 "I worked as an actor for most of my life, which got me an electric guitar and a way into the music business in Brazil. I had wrote 50 songs by the time I was 16. I wrote songs for advertisements, short films, soccer teams and highschool crushes. I sang them to friends at their apartments or home-studios, then I sang them on TV with my band. Now I sing them in the streets to make a living. I had to fall in love to understand what's real. Then I had to leave my country and follow her to Portland."
