A Rio de Janeiro duo whose straightforward songs about faith found listeners in the 1970s.
For their sound, try 'A Porta da Salvação.' 'Não Fique Desse Jeito' gives you a good sense of their approach.
Their 1971 album 'Mensageiros do Reino' included 'A Porta da Salvação,' which became widely known in Brazil. Songs like 'Deus Abre Caminho' and 'O Choro Pode Durar Uma Noite' carried simple messages about faith and hope that resonated in gospel circles.
Zé Maria (Zemar) and Cleonice Moreira began performing together in Rio de Janeiro in the early 1960s, starting with small churches and community gatherings. They recorded several albums through the 1970s, including 'O Último Trem' in 1972 and 'Paz e Amor' the following year.
