Background notes

Archive material and source history

Balaio de Cheiro formed in Salvador, Brazil in 1995, a group of musicians drawn to Afro-Brazilian rhythms. Their song 'Anjo Querubim' became a national hit, giving them a sudden burst of recognition.

Their music often referenced spiritual themes from traditions like Candomblé, with lyrics about angels and orixás. This sometimes led to questions about religious appropriation. The band's core included vocalist Chica Barreto, guitarist Alan Rezende, keyboardist Marquinho Lessa, and percussionists Tico and Juninho.

They faced the ordinary pressures of keeping a band together, financial strain, lineup shifts, the work of staying relevant after an early hit like 'Anjo Querubim' or 'Caboclo Sonhador.' Their story is less about celestial forces and more about making music in a particular place with particular sounds, then dealing with what comes next.
