Background notes
Archive material and source history
Os Polegar formed in Rio de Janeiro in the early 1980s. Their song 'Altar' became popular in Brazil, particularly with younger listeners who responded to their romantic themes and energetic live shows. The band included Rafael Ilha on vocals, Ricardo Costa on guitar, Alan Frank on keyboards, Marcelo Rodrigues on bass, and Alexandre Cazé on drums.
During the 1990s, they toured Brazil and released several hits. Their music maintained a straightforward pop approach with romantic lyrics and danceable arrangements. The band's lineup remained stable through this period, with Costa handling much of the songwriting.
In the early 2000s, personal issues affected the group. Ilha faced legal problems related to drug possession, and several members left the band. These difficulties coincided with a decline in their commercial popularity. The group continued performing with various lineup changes, but never regained their earlier prominence.
