500Passos formed in Fortaleza, Brazil in 2005, started by friends who wanted to make music together. The original lineup included Hudson Silva on lead vocals, Eliane Silva on vocals, Rudson Silva on bass, Felipe Silveira on guitar, and Lucas Souza on drums.
Their sound mixes gospel with Brazilian rhythms like samba, axé, and forró. The 2011 single "Minha Missão" became their breakthrough track, with its upbeat melody and lyrics about hope and purpose. Another song, "Te Dando Ideia," appears among their popular work.
They've released albums including 500Passos (2007), Eu Só Quero Te Amar (2009), Minha Missão (2011), Só Pra Você (2013), Em Tua Presença (2015), and Amor Eterno (2017). Some listeners have questioned aspects of their message, though the band has described their music as meant to inspire broadly.
