Background notes

Archive material and source history

Forró da Brucelose formed in 1998 in Juazeiro do Norte, Ceará. The band's name comes from a local cattle disease, which hints at their grounding in the rural culture of Brazil's Northeast. They play forró, a traditional genre with Portuguese, African, and indigenous roots, but they've kept things straightforward without overstating their role as keepers of tradition.

Their song 'Falta Um Boi Vaqueiro' became one of their most famous tracks, but it also led to a dispute over rights in 2014. Around the same time, another song, 'Os Homens da Seca,' drew some criticism for its explicit lyrics about drought in the region.

The band has put out albums like 'Forró da Brucelose' in 2005, 'Abre a Cancela' in 2007, and 'Falta Um Boi Vaqueiro' in 2009. Their lineup includes Zezinho de Zé on vocals and accordion, Toca do Vale on bass, Pedro Ivo on zabumba, and Fausto Nogueira handling triangle and vocals.
