A Brazilian band that started in 1999 and found hits with songs about affection and friendship.
For a sense of their early sound, "Cheiro de Carinho" and "Que Vida Boa" still hold up. They're straightforward songs about good feelings, which was kind of their thing.
They came out of a Salvador neighborhood in 1999 and built a following with songs that felt like local stories set to music. Their 2003 debut "Cheiro de Carinho" gave them a breakthrough with the title track, and other songs like "Que Vida Boa" kept that momentum going. They also became known for addressing social issues and supporting LGBTQ+ rights in their work.
They formed in Salvador in 1999, naming themselves after the neighborhood where they started. Their 2003 album "Cheiro de Carinho" brought their first real hit with the title track. Later, they were involved in a copyright dispute in 2005 while continuing to release music.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
