Thiago Larenttes

Brazilian Virtuoso Guitarist, Multi-Instrumentalist, Producer & Composer

Guitar Biography & Style

Thiago Larenttes is a Brazilian guitarist, multi-instrumentalist, arranger, and music/video producer based in São Paulo. Known throughout the progressive metal and shred guitar communities for his technical precision, modern djent sensibilities, and neoclassical flair, Larenttes first gained widespread international notice as the guitarist, co-composer, and producer for progressive metal outfit Andragonia.

His playing style integrates complex two-handed tapping, fluid hybrid picking, polyrhythmic low-tuned riffing, and sweeping arpeggios balanced with cinematic orchestral textures. Beyond his shred credentials, Larenttes is a versatile session player and producer—handling guitars, bass, orchestrations, and even saxophone across solo and collaborative works—most notably serving as the key co-writer, lead guitarist, and producer alongside legendary drummer Ricardo Confessori (Angra, Shaman) for the Realm Breaker project.
