Andre Matos had left-leaning political views and would not approve of the current Brazilian government, said the musician's brother.
In a live interview with Anderson Bellini , who is responsible for the documentary about the life and legacy of the Maestro of Rock , Daniel Matos answered a question about the musician's political views.
“Our family has always leaned much more to the left than to the right, let’s think of it that way. We’ve always prioritized governments that focused on social issues rather than capital accumulation,” he said. “At the same time, we were never members of the Workers' Party (PT) and never had any affiliation with the PT, and often we ended up not voting for left-wing parties, depending on the situation. But if I were to talk about left and right, I could say that Andre was a left-wing guy.”
Speaking about the current Brazilian government, without mentioning names, Daniel pointed out that "it's difficult to say what Andre would think of the current government without swearing," since the Matos family is totally involved with culture and art. "In my house, the money comes from music and film, you can imagine, right?" he concluded.
