Forró do Bunitim formed in Fortaleza in the 1990s, led by accordionist Valquíria Santos. Their song 'Cachaça Com Farinha' became widely known at Brazilian celebrations, though some listeners questioned their approach to traditional forró.
The group included Valquíria Santos on accordion and vocals, Moura Santos on vocals and percussion, Cacá Santos on guitar and vocals, Dinho Santos on bass, and Deivi Santos on drums. They released albums like their self-titled debut in 1996 and 'Cachaça Com Farinha' in 1998, which featured that song along with tracks like 'Senta Com Pressão' and 'Balança Sanfoneiro'.
