Animal Ventura is the brainchild of Byron Bay-based singer-songwriter Fernando Aragones.
Growing up playing punk and reggae in noisy garage bands in Southern Brazil, Aragones ventured to Australia where the eclectic sounds of the East Coast music scene beckoned.
What sets Animal Ventura apart is a unique ability to fuse effortlessly his innate funky rhythms from his native South America with the coastal soul of the Australian shores. To top it off his soothing and timeless vocals hold strength and passion in their delivery.
