A Brazilian pop band that formed in 2015, mixing accessible grooves with introspective turns.
For their early hit sound, check out "Agora Somos Ex." To hear their more introspective side, try "O Estranho" from the "É Tudo Nosso" album.
Their debut single "Agora Somos Ex" became a hit in Brazil, setting up their signature blend of pop with reggae and electronic rhythms. They've worked with Brazilian singer Ivete Sangalo, and tracks like "Sabor Rosé" and "Vibrações" show how they've kept that accessible sound while adding hip-hop and funk touches. Even through plagiarism accusations and legal trouble, they kept making music that feels both current and distinctly Brazilian.
XCalypso formed in 2015 with vocalist Thaynã Costa, guitarist Fábio Lima, bassist Pedro Oliveira, and drummer Lucas Moraes. Their second album "É Tudo Nosso" showed a shift toward more introspective material, with songs like "O Estranho" and "Saudade" reflecting that evolution. Later tracks like "Açaí" and "Uma Dose a Mais de Amor" continued their blend of pop and rhythmic grooves.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
