Background notes
Archive material and source history
Raunilson Leite da Silva came from Recife, Pernambuco, where he grew up hearing the local sounds of forró, frevo, and maracatu. He started playing music in his twenties with a band of friends, and they eventually recorded a song called 'Rua do Bandeira.' That track caught on with listeners, and his voice became familiar to people who recognized the mood of city life in his singing.
He kept making albums, and one of them won the Tim Maia Award for Best Forró Album. The band has had different players over time, with João do Vale on lead guitar, Chico do Acordeon on accordion, Derico do Baixo on bass, and Gilmar do Pandeiro on pandeiro. Raunilson has also worked with other musicians, including Gil.
