A pair whose 1975 hit 'Estrelinha' defined melancholic Brazilian country music for generations.
For their mood, 'Estrelinha' is still the place to start. 'O Coração Chora' is another good example of how they handled heartache.
They gave sertanejo some of its most durable emotional touchstones. 'Tempo Ao Tempo' is one of those songs that just stuck, a staple in the genre. Their sound, Di Paullo's expressive voice over Paulino's guitar, has felt familiar in Brazil for over fifty years.
They started playing festivals in 1964. The 1975 album 'Estrelinha' broke them nationally, and they kept recording from there, putting out over forty albums. Paulino's 1995 car accident was a setback, but they kept going.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
