Guitarist Abel Camargo comments:
"I had already seen Guga playing many times on the city's stages (Porto Alegre, Brazil), and there was something that always called my attention, and made me confident to choose him: The stage is really his home. Playing with friends, jamming with Paul Gilbert, playing classic songs, improvising on his videos, or even opening a concert for Dream Theater playing his own instrumental songs, he has always mastered what he wanted from his guitar and showed gratitude for that moment. Besides being a versatile and shredding guitarist, he is also a born composer."
HIBRIA released their 2016 album "XX" and 2015 self-titled album on Test Your Metal Records.

"The album blasts off with "Pain" a wonderful fusion of Hibria's signature speed and riffs with the style of Swing music. It was during this track that I realized that this album would be a reflection of where Hibria has come from, but also where they were going from here." ' Radio Laurier
