Os Garotos - Morrissey Brazilian cover duo

There is a fine Brazilian duo who plays The Smiths and Morrissey's songs.
The guys are great, and the singer has a remarkable physical and musical resemblance to the Great Moz. The guitarist is fabulous as well.

I believe their tribute is a labour of love, a homage, not an opportunistic way of making money.

Please do check out their site ( pics, audio files) for further info.

    The singer doesn't seem to have to try too hard to look like Morrissey. I will have to check out the audio files available online...

            I have done morrissey covers, which i'm sure many of you have heard and I must say this is interesting, this guy looks and sounds like Morrissey but maybe could do with some singing lessons to perfect his voice and some decent production too.
            Not bad!

                  The duo's cover band is called "Morrissey Cover BR". "Os garotos" means "the boys" in English, and it's a section of the site in which there's a short bio on them.

                    and found an amazing number of people into the smiths. i was at a local bar in Ipanema (Emporior) and was utterly shocked when they played "Handsome Devil." You dont even hear that track here in LA. What was even more strange is that the locals knew the lyrics to the song.
