Os Paralamas do Sucesso are an iconic rock band from Brazil, known for their unique blend of rock, reggae, and ska influences. The band formed in 1977 in Rio de Janeiro, originally consisting of Herbert Vianna (guitar and vocals), Bi Ribeiro (bass), and João Barone (drums), who joined a little later. They quickly made a name for themselves in the Brazilian music scene of the early 80s with their fresh sound and socially aware lyrics.
The band's momentum has rarely wavered since their early days, achieving both critical and commercial success throughout Latin America and beyond. Their music has evolved over time, incorporating a variety of musical styles while maintaining the distinct Paralamas identity. Despite facing a tragic accident in 2001 that left Vianna paralyzed from the waist down, the band remained resilient, continuing to record and perform. They have an extensive discography with many hits and have released live albums like "Multishow Ao Vivo - Os Paralamas Do Sucesso 30 Anos," celebrating their impressive career. Their recent releases, such as "Sinais Do Sim," show that Os Paralamas do Sucesso continues to be a vital force in Brazilian music, connecting with new and old fans alike with their enduring sound and spirited performances.
