1997 was the year we saw Pedro Camilo returning to limelight. Many years add passed since he recorded the 3rd LP with the teenage group Onda Choc, all of which released by CBS (now Sony BMG). In the meantime Pedro had keep his links with music, both in school projects and in a garage band where he was the keyboard player, grooving through the music of Prince, Van Halen and Genesis. In 1996 Pedro was asked by the producers and friends Joao, Nuno and Pedro Faria Gomes to help in gathering four singers to form a boy band. Telmo Miranda and Nelson and Sergio Rosado were found and invited to join the project and together with Pedro brought Setimo Ceu to life. Ten songs were written and recorded and the album with the band's name was released by Polygram (now Universal). After a few months of great anticipation and anxiety the first single Foi So Um Olhar, one of Pedro Camilo's solo tracks reach top spot on national radio play lists, giving the band a rapid climb to success which was followed by a year full of TV and Radio appearances and live shows, to audiences of more that 20.000 people. A year and a half after their debut album was released, Setimo Ceu disbanded. The brothers Nelson and Sergio Rosado formed the band Anjos with great success, Telmo Miranda joined another musical project.
Pedro Camilo got his act together and started writing songs for his first solo album. After listening to his demos, BMG signed him and sent him to London to work with the producer Luis Jardim on his debut solo album, Dono Do Tempo which gave Pedro his first radio hit as solo artist, the ballad Espaco Protegido. In 2003 Pedro released the album Meant To Be, produced by Luis Gil Bettencourt and mixed by Luis and Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme) in Los Angeles, CA.
