Up Down formed in São Paulo with Igor Caracas on vocals and guitar, Nando Alves on bass, Eduardo Hidalgo on drums, and Beto Villares on keyboards. They started playing local clubs and festivals, drawing attention with their mix of indie pop and Brazilian MPB influences.
Their 2015 debut album included the song "Seus Olhos," which became their most recognizable track. The album showed their range from energetic pop to more introspective ballads like "Olhos Castanhos" and "Pra Você."
They released three more studio albums after that: "Nação Urbana" in 2018, "Lar" in 2020, and a live album in 2021.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
