Background notes
Archive material and source history
Baby Marcelo came together in Salvador, Bahia in the early 2000s, started by Marcelo Barbosa and Roberto Barreto. They played with a mix of Afro-Brazilian rhythms, samba, and pop, sometimes using unconventional instruments like a makeshift broom guitar called a puxado and a friction drum called a cuíca.
Their song "Alegria (Piranha do Banheiro)" became a hit after they released an album called Alegria in 2004. The track, also known simply as "Piranha do Banheiro," had playful lyrics about a piranha in a bathroom set to an infectious melody.
