A Salvador band mixing samba, axé, and pop since the late '90s.
For a sense of their early appeal, 'Lembranças' still holds up. 'Sua Vez' gives you a good idea of where they are now.
They've been a steady presence in Brazilian music for over two decades, with songs like 'Lembranças' from their 1999 debut becoming a national hit. Their sound, which folds samba and axé into pop structures, has held up through lineup changes and a 2010 plagiarism dispute that was eventually dismissed. Tracks like 'Sua Vez' from their 2019 album 'Novo Ciclo' show they're still finding new ways to blend traditional and contemporary sounds.
Formed in Salvador in 1997, they built a following in local bars before releasing 'Sentimento Fatal' in 1999. After vocalist Márcia Freire left in 2005, they went through some instability but kept recording, with the original guitarist, bassist, and drummer still in the current lineup. Their 2019 album 'Novo Ciclo' continued their mix of Brazilian rhythms and pop.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
