A Salvador band from the 1980s that mixed samba, reggae, and pop with lyrics about waiting and unrest.
Start with 'Cansei de Esperar' for their breakthrough sound, then try 'Vai e Vem' for something you'd hear at a celebration today.
Their 1987 single 'Cansei de Esperar' became a breakthrough track in Brazil, with its melody and lyrics about waiting and social unrest connecting with listeners. Songs like 'Libera Detona' and 'Quem Manda Aqui É a Mulherada' showed their range and interest in social themes. Their music continues to be heard at gatherings and celebrations, blending Brazilian rhythms with pop elements.
A Cor do Sol formed in Salvador in the 1980s with musicians Armandinho Macêdo, Beto Jamaica, and Dadi Carvalho. Their debut album 'As Cores do Brasil' came out in 1984, and they faced challenges when guitarist Dadi Carvalho left in 1989 after a brain tumor diagnosis. After some quieter years, the band reunited for a tour in 2013.
