Background notes
Archive material and source history
José Carlos Tiro o Chapéu came together in Pernambuco, in northeastern Brazil, with José Carlos Monteiro as the lead vocalist. The band's name comes from their 2001 debut album and its title track, 'Tiro o Chapéu,' which became a hit. That song is about the simple gesture of tipping one's hat.
The group includes Monteiro's brother João Marcos on vocals and guitar, their cousin Josimar on bass, Domingos on accordion, and Marcelo on zabumba drums. They've worked with other Brazilian musicians like Gilberto Gil, Maria Bethânia, and Alceu Valença.
Their later albums include 'No Arraiá do Zé Carlos' from 2003, 'Só Pra Você' from 2006, and 'O Melhor do Forró' from 2015. Some listeners have found their lyrics pointed on social or political topics, while others have called their sound commercial. They play forró, a regional Brazilian style.
