## Biography and career

Lucas was born in Patrocínio, Minas Gerais, the son of radio broadcaster Paulo Roberto de Oliveira and Karina Luiza Corrêa de Oliveira, brother of Leandro Corrêa de Oliveira, a DJ. Lucas started singing and learning to play guitar at 10 years old. He created his first composition at age 11 called "50%". His first performance was also at 11, at a school festival. He began working as a 13-year-old as an office boy before moving on to becoming a salesman in a shopping mall in Belo Horizonte. Later, he also became a professional model for five years where he came to be known by the name Lucas Corrêa. During this time, he made several photographic essays. He also worked as a promoter. He studied a course on advertising in a college in Patos de Minas, but decided to give it up to dedicate himself to his career. He was also part of a trio sertanejo called "Skypiras".
According to the singer, he finds inspiration for his compositions through the routine of people. He says his goal is to write songs with themes that everyone can relate to. He cites several artists of the sertanejo music as his influences, with his top two being Zezé Di Camargo & Luciano and Jorge & Mateus. Due to the similarity in some songs and visuals, Lucas tends to gain many comparisons with Gusttavo Lima. Lucco's artistic name is the junction of three letters of his name with two of his last name: LUC = Lucas, C = Corrêa, O = Oliveira.

### Early career

The beginning of Lucas' musical career started with the recording of the song "Amor Bipolar" in 2011, which was made available on YouTube. Eventually, the businessman Rodrigo Byça saw the video and contacted him. A few days after dropping his modelling career to enter the music scene, he was patronized by the duo Israel & Rodolffo, and they began to perform together. They recorded the song "Previsões".
The singer's song "Pra Te Fazer Lembrar" reached almost 10 million hits on YouTube. A few months later, he released two new singles "Plano B" and "Pac Man", which he later performed at the Caldas Country 2012 festival in Caldas Novas, Goiás. He eventually decided to pursue a new musical style called arrocha, saying: "I used to be more romantic. Then when I saw that 'Plan B,' an arrocha song, worked, I wanted to compose more in this style."
In mid-2012, Lucas released his first album titled "Nem te Conto," which features fifteen tracks. This includes the songs "Na Horizontal" and "Nem te Conto (Sogrão)". In March 2013, Lucas Lucco released his first official video, titled "Princesinha" which surpassed four million views in less than three months.

### Partnership with the duo Fernando and Sorocaba

Singers and businessmen Fernando & Sorocaba invited Lucas to be part of FS Artistic Productions. In addition to being part of the duo's office, Lucas Lucco released a song with them entitled "Foi Daquele Jeito." This song was a re-recording of the original song by Thaeme & Thiago, who were also members of FS Produções. After the release of these songs, Lucas began to be compared to the singer Ricky Martin, who he considers one of his idols. He was also labeled by various media as "the new popstar of Brazilian music."
Her first success after the release of the album "Nem te Conto" was the song "É Treta", in which he talks about the advantage of not being in a relationship. In March 2013, Lucas Lucco released the song "Nobody Could Predict" in honor of the death of Chorão, lead singer of Charlie Brown Jr. Although both songs were different than his usual style, they were still well received by the public. However, he also received some criticism, which he addressed directly: "People did not believe that I was a fan, because I was a sertanejo, but people liked it. It was a way of expressing my affection".

### Current

Lucas Lucco currently does about 25 shows a month and has been successful all over Brazil. Most of his shows happen in the states of Minas Gerais and Goiás. He currently lives in Goiânia. The singer's participation in the media, including television and radio, are on the rise. He also participated in Domingão do Faustão in April 2014.
