A Brazilian pair whose 1979 album 'Sobradinho' made them known for songs about everyday resilience.
For a sense of their sound, try 'Amanhece Um Outro Dia' or 'Bati a porta'. They're both good examples of that plainspoken, melodic thing they did.
They started in the 1970s in a neighborhood on the outskirts of Brasília, and their 1974 album faced censorship for its political content. Their music, built around acoustic guitar and vocal harmonies, spoke plainly about struggle and hope. A song like 'Regra do Jogo' shows that melodic, direct style.
They met in Sobradinho in the 1970s and released their self-titled album in 1974. The 1979 album 'Sobradinho' was a major success, and they kept recording for decades, with albums like 'Quatro Cantos' in 1981 and 'O Que Me Interessa É a Vida' in 1997.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
