The Jalmas

The Jalmas formed in the coastal city of Joinville in the early 2000s, building an underground following with their raw approach to Brazilian rock. Their lyrics often carried a direct, unvarnished quality that drew attention, sometimes ruffling feathers with conservative listeners. They didn't seem particularly interested in smoothing out those edges.

In 2013, their debut album "Amanhecer de um Novo Dia" brought them wider recognition. Songs like "Bela Merda De Vida" and "Eu Sou Bandido" captured a defiant, straightforward energy that resonated with listeners. The album's success led to festival appearances and helped establish their presence beyond their local scene.

They've continued releasing albums like "Bala Perdida" in 2016 and "Vidas Paralelas" in 2022. The core lineup has remained Leoni on vocals, Fernando on guitar, Bruno on bass, and Felipe on drums. Their music maintains that direct, unpolished quality that first defined them, with tracks like "Esquece De Tudo" and "Evito Passar Na Sua TV" continuing in that vein.
