Official biography

Chocolate Costa, professionally known as Choco, is a Brazilian musician, professional bassist, music producer, multi-instrumentalist, recording engineer, and music educator based in the Atlanta, Georgia area.

With more than three decades of musical experience, his journey began during childhood in Brazil. He developed his musical skills through drums, guitar, and bass, building a career defined by versatility, dedication, and experience across different musical styles.

Before establishing himself in the United States, Chocolate developed his musical career in Brazil, performing and participating in musical projects. On September 21, 2005, he arrived in Atlanta, where he continued expanding his work as a professional musician.

Throughout his career in the United States, he has worked with musicians and artists across a variety of styles, including jazz, Brazilian music, funk, soul, gospel, and contemporary music. His publicly documented recording credits include work with artists such as Jhelisa and Sloppy Scales, as well as performances within Atlanta's music scene.

In addition to performing as an instrumentalist, Chocolate works in music production, recording, arranging, and the development of musical projects.

In 2001, he began the story of Chocolate Records, a project connected to his work as a producer and music entrepreneur. He later developed ChocoBass, a music brand dedicated to his releases, bass lessons, courses, recording services, and music production.

His work combines Brazilian musical influences with experiences gained in the international music scene. As an artist, producer, and educator, Chocolate Costa continues developing projects that connect musicians, cultures, and musical traditions.
