Pepê & Neném were brothers from Santo Amaro da Purificação, Bahia. They started performing in the late 1960s, working local bars and clubs before getting a record deal in 1975. Their first album came out that same year.
Their song "Mania de Você" became a hit, and they followed it with tracks like "Nada Me Faz Esquecer" and "Me Apaixonei Por Você." They recorded through the 1970s and 1980s, putting out albums including As Canções de Amor and Fruto Proibido.
José Orlando Silva was Pepê, and José Neto Silva was Neném. They sang and played guitar together.
