Casses formed in Salvador, Brazil in 1993. The band included vocalist Daniela Mercury, bassist Júnior Meirelles, drummer Anderson Cunha, and keyboardist Alfredo Moura. They released their debut album in 1995, which featured the song 'Apaga a Luz.'
That track became their breakthrough hit, connecting with listeners across Brazil. Other songs like 'Me Provoca' and 'Quero Mais' also found an audience. The band's sound drew from Afro-Brazilian rhythms while incorporating other styles.
They released several more albums, including 'A Noite' in 1996 and 'Encontro' in 1998. Mercury's vocal delivery and stage presence became a recognizable part of their live shows. The group maintained a fairly consistent lineup during their active years.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
