Background notes
Archive material and source history
Kamalu e Sua Turma formed in Salvador, Bahia during the 1970s. The band was led by vocalist and guitarist Kamalu, and their music drew from Afro-Brazilian rhythms with lyrics that often addressed social themes. They released their first album in 1975, which included the song "Cabelo do Leão."
That track became something of an anthem, known for its rhythmic drive and connection to Afro-Brazilian identity. Another song people remember is "Passinho do Kamalu." The band's lineup changed over time, with musicians like Alberto Costa on bass, Jairo Simões on drums, and João Bosco Almeida on saxophone appearing in different periods.
They put out several albums through the late 1970s and into 1980, including "Axé" in 1977, "Nosso Axé" in 1978, and "Raízes" in 1980. Their sound incorporated elements of samba and funk alongside their foundational rhythms. The group's music sometimes sparked discussion due to its direct lyrical content, but it found a steady audience in Bahia and beyond.
