Sérgio Cassiano (born August 1967) is a Brazilian jazz composer, percussionist, writer, producer, and bandleader.

Born and raised in the state of Pernambuco, Sergio was exposed to a wide variety of music in his youth. His musical influences ranged from local artist such as Luiz Gonzaga to the Beatles. He formalized his music education by studying classical and contemporary instruments at the Federal University of Pernambuco and has also performed with several acclaimed musicians and theater groups.

For well over two decades, Sergio Cassiano has explored widely divergent musical traditions while continually striving to make a difference in the lives of others by "moving his listener to a higher level through his inspiring lyrics." As composer, percussionist, writer, producer, and bandleader, he plays traditional North Eastern music of the Pernambuco region known for its soulful harmonic and melodic blends of African, Native and Iberian Brazilian sounds. As a panderio teacher and song writer, Sergio continues to share and document his own life's transformation through the lyrics he writes while working to preserve the Brazilian folkloric traditions with his music.
