Background notes
Archive material and source history
Bumba Meu Boi de Maracanã formed in São Luís, the capital of Maranhão, in the early 1970s. The group came together around the traditional folk music called bumba meu boi, which has been part of the region's culture for centuries. Their sound is built on lively accordion and percussion.
In 1982, they released "Maranhão Meu Tesouro, Meu Torrão," which became a national hit. The song's lyrics celebrate Maranhão's beauty and traditions, and it remains their best-known work. Other songs like "Estrela de Maio" and "Desperta Maracanã" followed.
They put out several albums in the 1980s and 1990s, including "Maranhão" in 1984 and "Maranhão de Todos os Povos" in 1996. The music stays rooted in the bumba meu boi tradition while reaching listeners across Brazil.
