Um Dia formed in São Paulo in 1997, with Martina on vocals, Fabão on guitar, Dê on drums, and Luiz on bass. Their sound pulled from grunge and alternative rock, but with a Brazilian pop feel that kept it grounded. In 2001, their self-titled debut album came out, and the single 'Martina' became a hit, a ballad that connected with listeners through its raw emotion and Martina's strong voice.
They put out a few more albums, like 'U.M.M.A.' in 2004 and 'Ao Vivo' in 2006. The band's music was built around Martina's passionate delivery and Fabão's melodic guitar work, backed by a tight rhythm section.
In 2012, Martina left the band. The rest of the story isn't detailed here, but songs like 'Chá de Limão' and 'Martina' are what people remember.
