Background notes
Archive material and source history
Pierre Simões formed his band in 1997, drawing from the Afro-Brazilian tradition of Axé and the spiritual teachings of Candomblé. His music often references Yoruba deities, with songs like 'Exu Pinga Fogo' and 'Saudação Aos Orixás' reflecting this influence.
In 2003, 'Exu Pinga Fogo' became a breakthrough single that resonated widely across Brazil. The song's pulsating rhythm and lyrical focus on the deity Exu helped establish Pierre Simões as a distinctive presence in Brazilian music.
His performances and lyrics have sometimes drawn criticism from conservative elements in Brazilian society, but he has maintained his artistic direction. Other tracks like 'Exu Gira Mundo' and 'Menina Veste Rosa, Menino Azul' continue his exploration of spiritual and cultural themes through music that blends various rhythmic approaches.
