Background notes
Archive material and source history
The Rio Singers formed in Rio de Janeiro in the late 1960s, with vocalist Célia Vaz as their central figure. Their 1972 album 'Eu Quero Festa' gave them their biggest hit, a song that became something of an anthem. They worked within the traditions of samba and bossa nova, giving those sounds a pop sensibility that found a wide audience.
They kept recording through it, and songs like 'Favo de Mel' and 'Real In Rio' became part of their catalog. The group's lineup shifted over time, with musicians like Sidney Magal and Marcos Valle passing through.
They never really stopped being a live act centered around Célia Vaz. The music from that 'Eu Quero Festa' period, straightforward and rhythmic, is what most people remember them for.
