Archive material and source history
Zé Catira e Dito Catireiro were a Brazilian folk duo active in the 1970s. Their song 'Pau Pra Qualquer Obra' came out in 1971 and became something of an anthem. They worked in São Paulo, where their music mixed traditional folk with a contemporary feel and lyrics that could be wry or satirical.
Their discography includes albums like 'Zé Catira e Dito Catireiro' from 1972 and 'O Brasil Da Gente' from 1978. Other songs like 'Fandango Paulista' and 'Despejo' show their range within Brazilian folk styles. The duo's material often carried social commentary, which sometimes drew attention during a politically tense period.
They were known for Zé's guitar work and vocals alongside Dito's percussion and lyrics. Their music has remained part of the Brazilian folk conversation, with 'Pau Pra Qualquer Obra' still getting played. They recorded through much of the 1970s before wrapping up their work as a duo.
