Luiz Esteves is a Brazilian singer, songwriter, keyboard, bass and guitar player. He started his career in Patos de Minas, Minas Gerais in Brazil. He wrote his first song with Dalla, another Brazilian musician from Patos de Minas.
In 1968, he was awarded the best male performance by a singer at the Intermunicipal Music Festival of Patos de Minas. He was then invited to join the band “Os Asteróides”.
Before 1970 he had been the lead singer for such local bands as “Trapps” and “Magos do Sol”.

By that time, Luiz had written over one hundred songs. In 1980, while living in Rio do Janeiro, he met Jorge Bomfim with whom he founded the band “Erva-Doce”. Together they recorded only one single with the songs “Reino Encantado” and “Sonho Louco”. The single was released by Top Tape in 1981 but despite some local radio airplay of the song “Reino Encantado”, it was not a hit. Due to the lack of success of the record, the band split and went their separate ways.
Luiz went on writing songs and performing shows in Minas Gerais until he left his professional musical career.
In 1988, Luiz returned to music by participating in the album “En Cantos Gerais”, a compilation of music from musicians from Patos de Minas. He contributed two songs, “Anjo Caído” and “Em Algum Lugar da América”, the latter of which was performed by Neusinha Morais.
