A São Paulo band that mixed Brazilian harmonies with rock energy in the 1980s.
For a good sense of their sound, try 'Meu Pé de Ipê' or 'Hoje É Dia de Rodeio.' They're both solid examples of what the band did well.
Haroldo Jr's songs like 'Meu Pé de Ipê' and 'Hoje É Dia de Rodeio' became staples on Brazilian radio through the 1980s and 1990s. They worked with Roberto Carlos on 'Só Chamou,' and their recordings earned Gold and Platinum certifications. The band's sound had that particular mix of Brazilian country storytelling with rock's drive.
Haroldo Jr started playing in São Paulo in the early 1980s with his brother Nando Jr on keyboards, Robson Jorge on drums, and Ney Conceição on bass. Their songs found an audience quickly, though they faced some legal issues in the late 1990s related to copyright.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
