Background notes
Archive material and source history
Divolão formed in Rio de Janeiro in the early 1980s with Serginho Mendonça on vocals and guitar, Joaquim Moraes on keyboards and saxophone, Mário Sampaio on bass, and Cláudio Portella on drums. Their sound mixed samba, reggae, and funk into something that caught on quickly in Brazilian rock circles.
They kept putting out albums through the late 80s and early 90s, including "Quero Mais" and "O Sol Brilha Pra Todos." Other tracks like "Miojo" and "Quem É Pompeu?" became part of their setlists.
They played live shows that drew crowds despite some early pushback from authorities and more traditional listeners. By the time they released their 1992 album "No Clima do Rock," they'd built a following that kept their music on the radio years later.
