Carla Perez was born in Salvador, Bahia in 1973. She joined the all-female group É o Tchan! as a dancer in 1995, then became their lead vocalist three years later.
Her breakout came with the 1999 single "Doce Mania," a track that became an anthem across Brazil. The song's catchy rhythm and Perez's delivery helped define that moment in axé music.
She left the band in 2002 to go solo, releasing her first album "Esperando na Janela" the following year. Other songs from her catalog include "Xucrute" and "Lobo Mau."
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
