José Mendes Guimarães was a prominent Brazilian actor, singer, guitarist, and composer of regional gaúcha music, born on April 20, 1939, in Machadinho. Best known for his song 'Pára Pedro,' Mendes is regarded as one of the greatest gaúcho singers. Despite a brief artistic career, he remains an iconic figure in gaúcha culture, often honored in Centro de Tradições Gaúchas (CTGs). He tragically passed away in a car accident on February 15, 1974, in Rio Grande, and his remains were later relocated to Memorial José Mendes in 2004.
