A Bahia trio that mixed punk energy with local sounds, staying true to their own path since 1998.
For a sense of their sound, start with 'Alvoroço' from that first album. 'Boa Noite' gives you a good feel for their live energy too.
Leash's music connected with listeners who appreciated straightforward energy and direct approach, even when they faced criticism for their lyrics. Songs like 'Alvoroço' became their most recognizable track, showing how their punk and alternative rock foundation could blend with Brazilian rhythms. They never chased mainstream attention, which gave their work an authentic feel that resonated.
Formed in Salvador in 1998 with Bruno Vasconcelos on vocals and guitar, Bruno Bessa on bass, and Nailton Oliveira on drums. Their first album came out in 2003, simply called 'Leash,' and they followed with records like 'O Gigante' in 2006 and 'Infame' in 2009. Other tracks like 'Boa Noite' and 'Dezesseis' show up in their setlists, marking their steady output.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
