A group of friends from Cajazeiras who built a following with songs like "Sem Orgulho e Sem Maldade."
For a good sense of their sound, try "Som de Acordeon" or "Caindo no Xamegar." They're one of those bands that just kept doing their thing.
They formed in 1998 and their 2006 single "Sem Orgulho e Sem Maldade" broke them out beyond their home state. Their music has popped up in Brazilian soap operas, and they've collaborated with names like Gilberto Gil. Songs like "Som de Acordeon" and "Pensamento de Um Poeta" show their mix of traditional forró with other regional sounds.
They started playing local festivals and weddings in Paraíba. After that 2006 single, they kept releasing albums and touring, with a steady lineup featuring Zé Lima on vocals and two accordion players.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
