Background notes
Archive material and source history
Pedecoco formed in Angola during a period of political tension. Their 1988 single "Erga-se" became known for its resistance themes, with lyrics that spoke to Angolan listeners. The band's name translates to "Little Feet."
Their music includes songs like "Movi Mente" and "A Verdade." They released albums such as "Independência" in 1991 and "Kuma" in 1995. The vocalist was Alcino "Ciso" Santos, with João "Nzambi" Abrantes on guitar.
Pedecoco faced government censorship due to their lyrics about social justice. They continued performing despite this pressure. Their later work included the 2004 album "Renascer."
