Banda Nexus formed in Rio de Janeiro in 2000 with Leandro Lehart on vocals, Paulinho Pires on keyboards, Juninho Gameleira on bass, and Rafael Zulu on drums. They started playing local bars and street corners, working their way up from there.
Their 2005 debut album 'Ilusão' gave them their breakthrough, with the title track becoming a hit. The song 'Por Tudo Que Passei' also comes from their early material. Their sound mixed samba with pop and electronic touches.
In 2007, they faced plagiarism accusations over the song 'Me Chama,' though they denied the claims. They kept recording after that, putting out albums like 'Além da Imaginação' in 2008 and 'Só Vem' in 2010.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
