A late-1990s group that blended bossa nova, jazz, and electronic touches into something darker.
If you're new to them, 'Timmy É Um Garoto Bom' is the obvious place to start. But 'Solitário Vampiro' or 'Vilania (Romance de Um Vilão)' give you a better sense of their later, moodier side.
K o d a's debut album 'Raiz' gave us 'Timmy É Um Garoto Bom,' a song that stuck around long after its release. Nara Leão's lyrics about love and loss felt direct and personal, and the band wasn't afraid to get experimental on later records. They pulled from bossa nova and folk, but you can hear electronic textures creeping in, too.
They started in the late '90s with a lineup that included Nara Leão on vocals and Marcelo Camelo on guitar. Albums like 'Da Lama ao Caos' and 'O Caminho das Pedras' moved into darker, more exploratory territory. Songs like 'Jack Vigarista' and 'Grinch (part. Kf)' show that shift.
