Archive material and source history
Zymba formed in Salvador, Brazil in 2009 with Emmily Barreto and Mariana Nessi on vocals, Danilo Oliveira on keyboards, Rafa Almeida on guitar, Léo Costa on bass, and Leandro Correia on drums. Their music pulls from samba, bossa nova, pop, and reggae, giving it a Brazilian rhythmic foundation without forcing a fusion label.
In 2014, the band's single "Ela Disse" became a breakout hit in Brazil. The song's catchy chorus and lyrics about female empowerment connected with listeners, making it one of their most recognizable tracks alongside others like "Festejar a Vida" and "Preta da Pesada." They've released albums including "Zymba" in 2011, "Samba Novo" in 2013, "Só Pra Dançar" in 2015, and "Z" in 2018.
Around 2016, Zymba faced plagiarism accusations over their song "Tô Indo Embora," which they denied. The group's lineup has remained relatively stable, with the original members still listed as current in available information. Their 2020 "EP Acústico" showed them working in a stripped-down format.
