A São Paulo quartet that mixes traditional sounds with modern textures, anchored by Paula Santisteban's voice.
For a quick sense of their range, try 'Livre' and '6º Andar' back to back. They're both from the debut and show how they can shift gears without losing their feel.
They've carved out a space where Brazilian folk meets electronic beats and jazz-inflected rock, which isn't always an easy fit. A song like 'Caixinha de Surpresas' became a hit partly because its lyrics about a mysterious box left room for listeners to find their own meaning. Even when they've faced criticism for drifting from tradition, they've kept their core lineup intact and kept putting out records like 'Luz em Noite Escura' and 'Sobre o Tempo'.
They formed in 2012 with Paula Santisteban on vocals, Pedro Mairink on guitar, Márcio de Campos on bass, and Rodrigo Sampaio on percussion. After their self-titled debut in 2014, 'Caixinha de Surpresas' broke through in 2016, and they've since released albums every few years, including 2021's 'Sobre o Tempo'.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
