Affortiore was a Brazilian band that formed in the early 1980s. Their 1984 album 'Laço Eterno' gave them their most recognizable song, a ballad that became popular despite some radio stations initially refusing to play it. The band's lineup included Ivan Lins on vocals, Vítor Martins on keyboards, Danilo Caymmi on guitar, Marcos Valle on bass, and Durval Ferreira on drums.
They released several albums through the 1980s, including their self-titled debut in 1982, 'O Fio da Navalha' in 1986, and 'Aventura' in 1990. Their sound incorporated jazz and bossa nova elements into a pop framework, which sometimes drew criticism from listeners expecting more conventional arrangements.
Their music has appeared in Brazilian films and television programs over time.
