Background notes
Archive material and source history
Bando de Macambira formed in the 1990s in Campina Grande, Paraíba. The band has been led by Chico Cézar, and they've focused on traditional Brazilian rhythms from the Northeast like forró, baião, and maracatu. Their song 'Choro do Ceará' became something of an anthem for the region.
They've released albums including 'Nós' in 1998, 'Forró Luminoso' in 2002, and 'Banquete' in 2009. Other tracks like 'Choro das Mulatas' and 'Crença' show their range within those regional styles. The band also established the Centro Cultural Bando de Macambira, a nonprofit focused on musical education and cultural preservation in the Northeast.
