Supla is an internationally known Brazilian artist who had his first hit with “Humanos” in 1986 fronting the band Tokyo. He collaborated with the mother of all punk, German legend Nina Hagen, duetting on their famous hit, “Garota de Berlim”.
After moving to New York in 1994, he formed the band Psycho69, playing in the downtown scene and opening for the Ramones in Brazil on their farewell tour. Supla then formed Brothers of Brazil with his brother Joao creating a new style called “Punka Nova”.
Recently, he’s released his 20th album, the second one backed by The Boutique Punks, entitled “Nada Foi Em Vão”, which translates to, “Nothing Was In Vain”. Supla & The Boutique Punks will be touring Europe in the summer of 2026.
In 2026, he celebrates 40 years of his career, and there’s much more to be announced! For Booking Information and Show Updates, contact/follow @SuplaOriginal on Instagram.
Supla and his hard rock band play as “Supla,” and have performed on stages that specifically target his long time hard rock fans, whether it’s on television, rocking a favela, or jetting into the USA for The Rebellion Festival or It’s Not Dead Festival (San Bernadino, CA).
In addition to being an accomplished musician, Supla has also authored his life story in “Cronicas E Fotos Do Charada Brasileiro” (The Chronicles of the Brazilian Riddler). After his high profile participation in the first reality show made in Brazil (Big Brother Brazil), he leveraged the spike in his notoriety from the show to release an album exclusively through magazine stands. Though completely unorthodox, it worked – and he sold more than a million albums!
Shortly thereafter, he produced and curated a Bob Gruen Photography Exposition in Brazil for the public at FAAP University.
He continued his television career starring on shows such as: Brothers, he was a judge on American Idol, Break Out, Brothers Na Gringa, MTV’s Papito in Love, and in multiple movies and soap operas, establishing himself as one of the most famous personalities in Brazil.
When the venues and typical festivals were curtailed during the pandemic, he again reinvented himself by tapping into the outrageously wild personality that he had always been known for – which saw him become one of the most high profile influencers with the younger generations. Supla’s direct personality and straightforward attitude was magnetic to them.
His instagram became very popular for the kids with opinions, especially those that love passionate music. This cross generational appeal has led him to represent such icons brands as Santos FC and Doritos, along with other youth targeted products.
Supla is currently on tour promoting his new album SuplaEgo, when he not working in the studio, or making updates for his fanbase.
