Formed in Sao Paulo in 2008, the group consisted of members Pedro Lucas Munhoz (Pe Lu), Pedro Gabriel Lanza Reis (Pe Lanza), Lucas Henrique Kobayashi de Oliveira (Koba), and Thomas Alexander Machado D'Avilla (Thomas). They were pioneers in the "Happy Rock" movement, which was characterized by upbeat rock tunes and optimistic lyrics, perfectly capturing the zest and spirit of the youth.
The band carved a niche in the music industry with their distinct style, often featuring a mix of pop rock sounds with electronic elements and catchy melodies. With several successful releases, including the energetic "Renascer" and the dynamic "Geração Z," Restart became a stalwart of contemporary Brazilian rock. They also experimented with bilingual tracks, as seen in "Happy Rock En Español." Fan favorites like "Cara de Santa" showcased their ability to blend light-hearted humor with infectious beats, while "Recomenzar" demonstrated their capability in crafting inspiring anthems about new beginnings. Their albums "Restart By Day" and "Happy Rock Sunday (Ao Vivo)," which features lively live performances, solidified their position in the music scene before their breakup in 2015. With a legacy of invigorating the Brazilian rock landscape, Restart remains a beloved chapter in the history of Latin American pop rock.
