Xel Guima formed in São Paulo in the early 2000s, with vocalist Xel and guitarist Guima as founding members. Their debut album came out in 2006, featuring the song "Eu Queria." That track became a hit, known for its melody and lyrics about longing.
They released several albums after that, including "Pra Que Me Chamou" in 2009, "Nação Que Encanta" in 2012, "Mundo Novo" in 2015, and "Nós No Universo" in 2018. The band's lineup changed over time, with members like Pinguim on bass, Diego on drums, and Thiago on keyboards joining at various points.
Their music drew from rock, pop, and Brazilian rhythms, and their performances sometimes sparked debate. They kept making music through the 2010s, with "Eu Queria" remaining their best-known work.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
