Career


Born in Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, he released three studio albums during his short career. In 2017, he released the song titled "Acabou Acabou", a collaboration with Wesley Safadão.[4]

Diniz became nationally known by the single "Jenifer", a song that was the most played on the radio and music streaming sites of Brazil, becoming the hit of the summer of 2019.[5][6][7]

Although born in Campo Grande, he moved with his family to João Pessoa, in Paraíba(northeast region) where he was raised. Gabriel Diniz started his career as a musician singing at some parties at his college, where he studied electrical engineering. His first steps started with his friends, who created a garage band, attracting businessmen from the city. He went through bands like Campim com Mel and Cavaleiros do Forró, and later joined his main band: Forró na Farra, between 2010 and 2011.

In 2013, he changed the name of his band to his own name: Gabriel Diniz. He innovated by joining two musical genres typical of brazil's northeast region: Forró and swingueira (pagode baiano), highlighting percussion.


Death


On 27 May 2019, Diniz died in a plane crash after a concert in Sergipe in Estância, Brazil on his way to surprise his girlfriend for her birthday party.[8] The aircraft was a Piper PA-28 Cherokee manufactured in 1974 registered PT-KLO.[9]
