Career
Fabricio started learning music at the age of 8, studying mainly piano and violin in private lessons; later, he entered the Arts Institute (IA) of UNESP, but he dropped out, feeling rejected by teachers and most of his classmates. Besides piano, Lord is a music producer and sound engineer who also self-taught electric bass and accordion. Vinheteiro has a veterinarian college degree, but his commitment to music never allowed him to work as a pet doctor.
In 2008 he created the Lord Vinheteiro channel on YouTube,[1] which quickly became an internet hit, playing piano versions of classic songs from television, cinema, animes and video games, being one of the pioneers in this type of content on the platform. Due to the content produced on his YouTube channel, he participated in famous Brazilian programs such as Jornal Nacional[5] and The Noite com Danilo Gentili,[2] playing piano in a big concert in China together with local musicians, and several other notable achievements.[6]
Lord Vinheteiro produces content almost weekly for his YouTube channel, which already exceeds the mark of 6 million subscribers.[3][4]
