After 18 years of formation and studies in seminaries, with a final phase being frater in the seminary of St. Jude Tadeu of Terra Boa – Pr, on December 15, 2001, in his hometown, in the Mother Church of St. Vincent Ferrer, Fábio de Melo was ordained a priest by the consecratory prayer of the Church and by the imposition of the hands of the Metropolitan Archbishop of Palmas, Tocantins, Bishop Alberto Taveira Corrêa.

He holds a degree in theology from the Dehonian College of Taubaté, with a diploma from the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro and Philosophy at the Brusque Educational Foundation in Santa Catarina.

In 2006, celebrating his 10 years of acting in Catholic music, several well-known songs known as "sertanjeas" were included in his 2006 release, in homage to his origins and his father, who also sang and played Viola.

The 2007 CD, Son of Heaven, first out of the Paulines and now for the New Song, tells of personal experiences and of those who have left, such as Father Léo Tarcísio, his trainer in seminary, and his great friend and singer-songwriter Robson Jr., of Cantores de Deus.

Released the same year, the CD My Simple People retakes the idea already tried in "Zé Da Silva", with sertanejas, presenting those songs that were not originally recorded.

In 2008, Fábio de Melo released his first CD for the record company Som Livre – Vida – a work that made him known nationally, through the various participation in programs on open TV.
