Chiclete Com Banana is an iconic Brazilian axé music group that has been a fundamental part of the Brazilian music scene since their formation in the early 1980s. Hailing from Salvador, the capital of the state of Bahia, the band has built a reputation for their vibrant and energetic performances that masterfully combine elements of reggae, rock, and salsa into their axé music – a genre that originated in Bahia and has become synonymous with the Brazilian Carnival.

Named for the playful and somewhat nonsensical nature of their lyrics and music, Chiclete Com Banana quickly rose to fame with their ability to get audiences dancing with their catchy tunes and rhythms. The band, led by vocalist Bell Marques initially and later by his successors, has been a staple in Brazil's festive music scene, creating an extensive catalog of hits over the years. Albums like "Flutuar," "É Sério," and live recordings such as "Ao Vivo Tocantins" and "Nana fest Maranhão 2006 (ao vivo)" capture the electrifying experience of their performances. Compilations like "Seleção Essencial - Grandes Sucessos - Chiclete Com Banana" showcase the best of their decades-spanning career. As they evolved, tracks like "Amar Você Não Dói" and "É Sério" continued to win the hearts of fans, both old and new, maintaining their status as one of Brazil's most beloved music groups.
