Background notes
Archive material and source history
João Cavalcanti is a musician from Recife, Brazil. His debut album 'Bicho Saudade' came out in 2011, featuring a collaboration with Lenine on the title track. The album established his approach, which draws from traditional Northeastern Brazilian styles like forró and maracatu.
He followed that with albums like 'Um Pouco Mais' in 2014, 'Manjéu' in 2017, and 'Linda' in 2020. Songs like 'Dia Lindo' and 'Frevo do Contra-Êxodo' show his range, moving between folk textures and more electronic arrangements. He's worked with musicians including Marcelo Caldi on 'Indivídua'.
Cavalcanti's band has included Thiago Trad on guitar, Rodrigo Tavares on drums, Glauton Lemos on bass, and Roberto Kramer on keyboards. His lyrics tend toward the poetic, dealing with memory and place, as in 'Aquarela Brasileira' and 'Garimpo'.
