A São Paulo trio mixing rock, pop, and bossa nova since the early 2000s.
For a quick sense of their range, put 'Na Mão do Moleque' next to 'Evolução'. One's all groove, the other leans into their rock side.
They're one of those bands where the music tells you more than the press releases. 'Pobre Pessoa Rica' has that sharp, observational quality that became their signature after 2007, when a member's arrest shifted their focus toward social commentary. Their sound, rock grounded in bossa nova rhythms, feels distinctly Brazilian in a way that sticks.
They formed in the early 2000s with Júlio Mello on vocals and guitar, Emerson Vilela on bass, and Adriano Tavares on drums. Their debut album 'Tempo Não Para' came out in 2004, and their lyrics took a turn toward social issues after 2007.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
