A Bahian band blending samba, reggae, and rock since the early 1990s.
If you want to hear what they do, start with "O Banquete" and "Cavalo Marinho." They give you the range without overcomplicating it.
They've worked with Brazilian music figures like Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil, which tells you something about where they're coming from. Songs like "O Banquete" and "Alaska" show how they fold different traditions together without losing the Bahian feel. Their 2020 album Ode ao Tempo suggests they're still finding new things to say in that mix.
They formed in Salvador in the early 1990s and put out their self-titled debut in 1994. By 1996's Dois Mundos, they were already stretching what that Bahian sound could hold. The recent work keeps pulling from samba, reggae, and rock, just with more years behind it.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
