Editor's note

Maneva's Brazilian reggae, steady since 2002

A Curitiba band that mixes reggae grooves with Brazilian rhythms and lyrics about love and resilience.

For a good sense of their approach, try 'O Destino Não Quis' or 'Saudades do Tempo.' They're both classic Maneva, reggae with a Brazilian pulse, and lyrics that feel lived-in.

They've built a sound that's recognizably theirs over two decades, anchored by Polli's voice and Sousa's guitar. A song like 'Evidências' shows how they handle a reggae groove with a local feel. Their lyrics often work through personal struggles without losing the light touch of the music.

They formed in Curitiba in 2002 with the same four members they still have today. Their first album was a hometown live recording, 'Ao Vivo em Curitiba,' and they've kept making music in that vein ever since, even through some controversy around 'Seja Para Mim' in 2010.

Archive material and source history

Maneva formed in Curitiba, Brazil in 2002 with Tales de Polli on vocals, Felipe Sousa on guitar, Fabiano Araújo on bass, and Fernando Gato on drums. They started playing reggae with Brazilian rhythms woven in, and their first album was a live recording from their hometown called 'Ao Vivo em Curitiba.'

Their song 'Seja Para Mim' became a hit, though in 2010 there were some plagiarism claims around it that the band denied.

You can hear their approach in tracks like 'O Destino Não Quis' and 'Saudades do Tempo', reggae grooves with a Brazilian feel, and lyrics that often touch on love and getting through tough times. The lineup has stayed the same since they began, with Polli's voice and Sousa's guitar lines giving the songs their character.
