Detonautas Roque Clube, often known as Detonautas, is a prominent Brazilian rock group that was formed in 1997 by Tico Santa Cruz in Rio de Janeiro. The band's name is a fusion of the words "internauta" (internet user) and "detonador" (detonator), reflecting their early adoption of the internet for promotion and fan communication in the Brazilian underground music scene. Detonautas gained mainstream recognition for their expert blend of rock with other genres like reggae and rap, articulating social and political commentary through their music.

Over the years, Detonautas Roque Clube has not only cultivated a robust national following but has also undergone various lineup changes while maintaining their core sound and message. The recent releases such as "Só nós 2," "Outro Lugar (Ao Vivo)," and the acoustic live album series "Acústico 20 Anos - O Amor Não Tem Inimigos," celebrate two decades of the band's journey and showcase their versatility and maturity as artists. Their music speaks to themes of love, social justice, and hope, resonating deeply with audiences and ensuring their continued relevance in the Brazilian music scene. With tracks like "Não Existe Salvador da Pátria" and "Esperança," Detonautas continue to engage with contemporary issues, cementing their status as a vital voice in rock music.
