Archive material and source history
Os Quebradeiras formed in the early 1990s in Nova Olinda do Norte, a town in the Brazilian Amazon. The name translates to 'The Nutcrackers,' referring to their work as Brazil nut gatherers. They're an all-female group that plays traditional Amazonian folk music, with songs that often reflect the daily lives of women in the region.
Their track 'Pagodão do Birimbola (Tchubirabirom)' became particularly well-known, its title referencing a traditional percussion instrument made from a hollowed gourd. Another song, 'Na Rebolada,' features collaborations with DJ Zullu, Machadez, and Mousik. The group has released albums like 'Encanto das Quebradeiras' in 2004 and 'Mulheres da Amazônia' in 2019.
Dona Onete leads the ensemble as singer and guitarist, with other members including Dona Dalvina, Dona Modesta, and Dona Marina. Their music has appeared in documentaries and film soundtracks, and they've been recognized with awards including the Prêmio da Música Brasileira.
