Background notes
Archive material and source history
Funk Dos Baianos formed in Salvador, Bahia in 1979, with Armandinho on vocals and guitar. Their first album came out that same year, simply called 'Funk Dos Baianos.' The track 'Zap Zap' from that record caught on quickly, becoming something of an anthem with its upbeat rhythm and message about coming together.
They put out several more albums through the 1980s and early 1990s, including 'Rapha Lisboa,' 'Vida de Rei,' and 'Funk e Samba.' The band's sound mixed funk with samba, reggae, and soul, and their lyrics often touched on social issues. Their music wasn't always conventional, and that drew some criticism at the time, but they kept at it.
