Editor's note

Palhaço Caçarola, the Bahian band with a clown's name

A Brazilian group from Feira de Santana that mixed traditional rhythms, pop, and experimental sounds in the 1990s.

For a quick sense of them, try "Eu Crio Um Cururu" for the breakout hit, or "Lembro" for something more reflective.

They came out of Feira de Santana in the late '80s with a name that means "clown casserole," which tells you something about their offbeat spirit. Their 1993 hit "Eu Crio Um Cururu" broke through with its catchy melody and use of found sounds, pulling Bahian rhythms into something new. Tracks like "Lembro" and "Comida Azeda" show how they blended social themes with an eccentric stage presence that divided critics.

Formed in the late 1980s, they faced financial struggles and some skepticism early on. From their self-titled debut in 1991 to "Nossos Dias" in 2002, they released five albums, with core members like Léo Cavalcanti on vocals and percussion shaping their sound.

Palhaço Caçarola formed in the late 1980s in Feira de Santana, a city in northeastern Brazil. The name translates to "clown casserole," which gives you some idea of their approach. Their early years involved financial struggles and some skepticism from critics who weren't sure what to make of them.

Their sound pulled from traditional Bahian rhythms, contemporary pop, and experimental touches. In 1993, they released "Eu Crio Um Cururu," which became a breakout hit in Brazil. The song's melody and use of found sounds caught people's attention. They also recorded tracks like "Lembro," "Comida Azeda," and "Pipoca Com Sal."

The band's core members included Léo Cavalcanti on vocals and percussion, Chico Oliveira on guitar and vocals, Edinho Ziquinho on bass, and Luiz Caldas on drums. They released five studio albums between 1991 and 2002, starting with their self-titled debut and ending with "Nossos Dias." Their lyrics sometimes addressed social themes, and their stage performances had an eccentric quality that drew both praise and criticism.
