Background notes
Archive material and source history
Opção de Defesa formed in Salvador, Bahia in 1986, drawing from Afro-Brazilian traditions. Their early years involved financial struggles, but they kept playing. In 1991, the single 'Olho de Tandera' brought them national attention with its groove and socially conscious lyrics. Other songs like 'Guarda Chuva Azul' and 'Sem Freio Memo' feature collaborations with artists like Léo CM and Chiocki.
Their discography includes albums such as 'Coração Cigano' from 1989, 'Rolé no Catete' in 1993, and 'Swing da Cor' in 2000. The band's lineup has included Jorge Zarath on vocals and guitar, Marquinhos Marques on guitar, Tarcísio Abdalla on bass, and Jonga Cunha on drums.
They continued releasing music into the 2000s with albums like 'Festa na Bahia' in 2003. Songs such as 'Bate Toque' and 'Caindo em tentação' reflect their blend of rhythms and lyrical themes. The band's work remains rooted in the musical landscape of Bahia, without grand claims about its impact.
