Mulheres de Chico is an all-female Brazilian band celebrated for their vibrant and passionate tributes to Chico Buarque, a legendary Brazilian singer, composer, playwright, and writer. Founded in 2003, the group was born out of a shared admiration for Buarque’s work and the desire to interpret his songs through a distinctly feminine perspective. Their name, a Portuguese phrase, translates to “Chico’s Women,” reflecting both their inspiration and their unique identity within the musical landscape.
Over the years, Mulheres de Chico have built a reputation for their energetic live performances, characterized by an engaging blend of samba, forró, and other traditional Brazilian rhythms. They came into the spotlight with their festive and often participatory concerts, especially during Carnival times in Rio de Janeiro, where they are based. Their jubilant renditions and tasteful arrangements of Chico Buarque’s music celebrate the rich and diverse heritage of Brazilian culture, while their project, "MDC 10 Anos," commemorates a decade of their passionate artistry and connection to Buarque’s timeless repertoire. The ensemble not only captivates fans of Chico Buarque but also draws in new listeners with their charismatic stage presence and musical prowess.
