OB Ricky formed in 2015 in Salvador, Bahia, with Bruno Oliveira on vocals and guitar, Ricky Silveira on bass, and Tiago Barbosa on drums. They put out their debut album 'Vem Pra Cá' in 2018, and the title track became a hit in Brazil.
Their music pulls from Brazilian styles like samba and pagode, mixed with more current sounds. Another song people know is 'Desejo.'
In 2017 they had to sort out a legal issue over the band name, which led to the OB Ricky rebrand. Some of their lyrics and stage shows have drawn criticism for being too provocative, though others see it as pushing boundaries.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
