Background notes
Archive material and source history
Saravá formed in São Paulo around 1980, with Jorge Caetano on guitar and vocals, Serginho Silva on bass, Nei Conceição on percussion, and Dinho on drums. Their music pulled from African, Caribbean, and Brazilian folk traditions, though they weren't just making party music. They put out records like their self-titled debut in 1981, 'Saravá III' in 1983, and the album 'Negra Pele' in 1990.
One of their songs, 'Negra Pele,' celebrated Black identity and resilience, which drew some criticism at the time. They kept at it, with Caetano staying at the center through various lineup changes. Another track, 'Sem Mágoas,' shows up in their catalog too.
Their sound connected with listeners who felt left out of mainstream Brazilian culture. You can hear that blend of rhythms in their work, a mix that felt specific to them and their moment.
