Hi There

Hi There formed in São Paulo in the mid-1990s, originally calling themselves S.C.I. (Sociedade Científica Independente). The band's lineup included vocalist and bassist Gustavo Vaz, guitarist Felipe Lira, and drummer Bruno Gonçalves. They gained attention with their 2003 debut album 'Ninguém Se Importa,' whose title track connected with listeners as a ballad about social indifference.

Gonçalves left the band in 2007, and André Frateschi joined on drums. Their songs often dealt with personal and social themes, like 'Qual Razão de Tanta Dor?' and 'Acreditar.' They've released several albums since their debut, including 'O Grande Circo' in 2006 and 'Cicatriz' in 2020.

Vaz, Lira, and Frateschi continue as Hi There. Their music, including tracks like 'Dizer Te Amo' and 'Encontrar você,' has maintained a presence in Brazilian alternative rock without dramatic claims about its impact.
