Background notes
Archive material and source history
Quadrilha Amanhecer No Sertão formed in 1996 in Nova Olinda, Ceará, a rural town in Brazil's sertão region. Their name translates to 'Dawn Quadrille in the Sertão,' nodding to the traditional quadrilha dance parties that are part of the area's culture. The group's sound draws from forró and baião rhythms, built around accordion, triangle, zabumba bass drum, and the vocals of lead singer Raimundo Nonato.
Their song 'Quadrilheiro de Barro' captures their approach well, lyrics that sketch the sertão's landscapes and people, delivered with the direct, earthy instrumentation typical of northeastern Brazilian folk music. They've worked mostly within their region, with the practical limitations that come with being based in a remote area.
There's a straightforward quality to their recordings, less about studio polish and more about presenting the traditions they come from. They haven't chased national fame so much as maintained a local presence, playing at festivals and community events where quadrilha music has its roots.
