Background notes
Archive material and source history
Flying Sticks formed in Lisbon in 1984 with Pedro Ayres Magalhães on vocals, Ricardo Camacho on guitar, João Gil on bass, and Miguel Gil on drums. They became known for energetic live shows and straightforward rock songs that caught on quickly in Portugal.
Their 1987 album 'Lutar Contra o Vento' drew some criticism for its political lyrics, and a 1986 concert at Praça da Figueira had issues with crowd violence. They kept recording through the early 1990s with albums like 'Voando Alto' and 'O Último Beijo'.
Their most recognizable song is 'Em Direção Ao Sol,' which became something of an anthem in Portugal. After a break in the mid-1990s, they regrouped in 2004 and put out another album in 2013 called 'Vozes do Além.'
