Background notes
Archive material and source history
Okénio M comes from Salvador, Bahia, where Afro-Brazilian percussion and traditional melodies shape their sound. The band includes Okénio Mendonça on vocals and guitar, Robson Souza on bass, Bruno Silva on drums, and Lucas Santos on percussion. They released their debut album 'O Mundo É Nosso' in 2016, followed by 'Alma' in 2019 and 'Raiz' in 2022.
Their single 'Damn' became a breakout track, a soulful ballad that blends Brazilian influences with contemporary pop. The band has toured Brazil and internationally, performing at festivals and collaborating with other artists.
In their early days, Okénio M faced some skepticism about their eclectic style. They also dealt with the loss of an original member, which influenced their music moving forward. Their work on 'Raiz' included collaborations with traditional Brazilian musicians, focusing on rhythmic elements from their homeland.
