Gizelle e Wanya formed in Salvador, Bahia, with Gizelle on vocals and Wanya playing guitar. Their song "De Cara Nova" became popular in 1999, reaching the top of the charts in Brazil. The duo also recorded tracks like "Frio da Solidão" and "Vai Chover."
In 2002, Wanya was arrested for alleged drug possession, which affected the band's public image. Gizelle supported him through that period, and they continued working together afterward. They released albums including "De Cara Nova" in 1999 and "Luz Do Sol" in 2001.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
