Banda Dallas formed in Brazil in 2009. Their song "De Volta Ao Normal" became popular enough to give the band some mainstream attention. The group included Igor Elian on vocals, Rodrigo Oliveira on guitar, Fernando Leite on bass, and Carlão on drums.
Their music pulled from axé, pagode, and funk. They put out albums like "De Volta Ao Normal" in 2009, "Eu Quero Tudo" in 2011, and "Vai no Compasso" in 2014. Other songs like "Café Amargo" and "Seu Erro Em Meu Olhar" are part of their catalog.
In 2012, there was a legal dispute over a song called "O Som da Favela," which the band eventually won. Their live shows sometimes drew criticism for what some saw as promoting heavy partying. They kept recording and playing after that, though with less visibility than during their initial run.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
