Haroldo Bontempo was born in Rio de Janeiro in 1933. His song 'Brasil, 17h' came out in 1969 on an album with the same name. During Brazil's military regime, some of his work faced censorship for what authorities saw as political content.
He recorded other albums like 'Canto Triste' in 1973 and 'Água dos Meninos' in 1975. Bontempo worked with musicians including Chico Buarque, Vinicius de Moraes, and Nara Leão. His band at times featured players like pianist Antonio Adolfo and percussionist Paulinho da Costa.
Beyond 'Brasil, 17h,' his catalog includes songs such as 'De Volta à BH,' 'Blues Chilango,' and 'Boa Viagem (Vaporwave PT. 1).'
